Thanks! This got fixed upstream in version 252, so current RHEL 8.6 nightlies already have the fix. Yesterday we backported the fix to the rhel-8.5 branch: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/16695 After this is ack'ed, I'll clone the bug for 8.5.z. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.

Created attachment 1845115 [details] Cockpit Broken Dialog Box for Admin Access with Duo MFA Cockpit version: 251 OS: Red Hat 8.5 Page: Administrative Access Description of problem: Our Red Hat servers are configured to use Duo for multifactor authentication. In prior versions of Cockpit, we were able to log in as a non-root user and click "Turn on administrative access" and be greeted by a dialog box where we can press a number to select what method we would like Duo to use to authenticate us (push notification to phone # 1, push notification to phone # 2, call to phone # 1, call to phone # 2, etc.). In the 251 version, which appears to be the latest version available via Red Hat repositories for RHEL 8.5, the dialog box that would allow us to enter a number and initiate the Duo request is not visible. In addition, the dialog text is cut off on the screen. Supporting Documentation and Screenshots: The dialog info is cutoff and no dialog box is present to enter/select the number requested by Duo. As a result, it is impossible to authenticate properly and elevate to admin permissions as a non-root user. This was tested and worked in prior versions. I am attaching a screenshot showing the way the Cockpit dialog box looks. In addition, I am attaching how it should looked based on how the terminal and other apps like WINSCP work. The dialog box in Cockpit needs to be adjusted to display all necessary info as well as the entry field where a selection can be entered.
