Title:
xfce4-terminal shows password visibly in clear between attempts and
accepts (updated Nov. 17th)
Status in sudo package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Corrected copy and pasted info Nov. 17th.
If written quickly after a failed attempt xfce4-terminal shows
password visibly in actual characters and accepts the password.
Example (the word "pass" is the password):
brett@BrettPC:~$ sudo su
[sudo] password for brett:
pass
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for brett:
root@BrettPC:/home/brett#
To clarify I did not enter a password the second time it sad "[sudo]
password for brett:" it simply accepted the one shown visibly.
