OK, this problem was present in quite a few of the modules. The text was set to visible so the invisible "●" character wasn't being displayed.
This patch corrects all of the instances where this happens in a password field. On the gmail module, the password field had * as an invisble character. This patch also changes it to the proper "●" character. ** Attachment added: "Fix password fields and use ● as gmails invisible character" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14591676/conduit.patch ** Summary changed: - Picasa provider password field does not mask password characters + Conduit password fields not masked ** Description changed: Binary package hint: conduit - The Picasa provider has a "Password" field, but it shows characters in - plain text rather than with '*' or other masking. Anyone looking at my - screen could gain access to my picasa/gmail account. + Many of the conduit modules show the password as it is being entered, + because the gtk entry widget has its text set to visible. ** Tags added: patch -- Conduit password fields not masked https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
