Public bug reported:
Hello.
We are unable to change user password using chpasswd with libpam-
passwdqc, it seems to miss detect old password:
root@server:~# echo 'root:hearth=mirth-Double' | chpasswd
[…]
Weak password: is the same as the old one.
Try again.
root@server:~# echo $?
1
I tried the following to make sure the old password was not the same:
root@server:~# echo 'root:foo' | chpasswd -c SHA512
root@server:~# echo 'root:hearth=mirth-Double' | chpasswd
[…]
Weak password: is the same as the old one.
Try again.
root@server:~# echo $?
