Build Identifier:
I want to change my password, but every bugzilla installation I found, doesn't allow me to use more than 16 chars longer password.
why? is it kind of "just like that" design, or is it performance/etc problem?
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Actual Results:
max 16 chars
Expected Results:
more
historically you were limited by crypt()
Traditional crypt:
The first 8 bytes of the key are null-padded, and the low-order 7 bits of
each character is used to form the 56-bit DES key.
Summary: max-lenght of password seem too short → max-length of password seems too short
