Fixed In Version: ovirt-node-2.5.0-3.el6 Doc Type: Bug Fix

Previously, if the old password was not entered, a new password could be set. This meant that during upgrade, an admin could change the password without ever knowing the previous password. This fix ensures that the previous password has been entered and verified correctly before allowing the password change.

Can you try this with the final 6.3 version?  My attempts show that it doesn't reproduce in the final version.

Thanks

Comment 9 Mike Burns 2012-06-26 12:51:07 UTC
OK, what I was trying was first trying with incorrect password which set the appropriate variable and caused it to not upgrade.  I reproduced by upgrading and setting no password on the current password line

Comment 20 haiyang,dong 2012-12-17 02:03:00 UTC
Test version:
rhev-hypervisor6-6.4-20121212.1.el6 
ovirt-node-2.5.0-11.el6

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEV-H first.
2. Boot from PXE choose the latest RHEV-H and press Enter key enter TUI upgrade process.
3. Keep current password blank and input new password, press continue button.

 it will return to current page,new password only could be set when enter old password in TUI upgrade.

so this bug has been fixed, although missed "Current Password is Required" page,
Having bug #887253 to track the creation of an additional popup, change the status into "VERIFIED"
