Upgraded from F39->F40 via dnf upgrade mechanism. During first boot after upgrade, I hit Esc to see the service startups to monitor for any issues. My /home partition is encrypted by LUKS. I get the normal prompt that looks like: Enter passphrase for /home on ####: <enter password here> When I do that, instead of nothing (or *s), I see my password in plain text. After hitting <enter> I see an echo'd out statement: Enter passphrase for /home on ####: ***** (number of *s equal to my password length) This is 100% reproducible if you have an encrypted disk here. Boot process, after selecting kernel to boot into F40, hit escape to watch non-GUI boot process. When asked for passphrase for encrypted partition, enter it and hit <enter>. You'll see your passphrase in plain text, then a repeat of the prompt with *'s immediately afterwards. Note: This did not occur on F39. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have an encrypted partition setup 2. Reboot system 3. Select kernel at GRUB and press enter 4. Hit <Esc> to watch services start up instead of the nice GUI 5. Enter passphrase when prompted Actual Results: You see your passphrase in plain text Expected Results: You should see nothing or *s
Crypstetup is not the process that displays password prompt. My guess it is duplicate of bug #2271337 but not sure, reassigning to plymouth for now.
Right this is a duplicate of 2271337, marking it as such. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 2271337 ***
