I have submitted the following several times over the last 3 days using reportbug, and never received any acknowledgement of the email:

Subject: general: Root Password Displayed in Plain Text
Package: general
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

frank@hpDeskDeb:~$ reportbug -f default.keyring
Finding package for 'default.keyring'...
No packages match.
No package specified or we were unable to find it in the apt cache; stopping.


frank@hpDeskDeb:~$ cat /home/frank/.local/share/keyrings/default.keyring
[keyring]
display-name=default
ctime=1473956454
mtime=0
lock-on-idle=false
lock-after=false

[1]
item-type=0
display-name=Local password for user root
secret=d*****   <== this displays my real system root password
mtime=1473958502
ctime=1473956454


I don't know, but I would think that the root password in plain text is
a security issue.
