Not a password but slightly related, had to use western union to send money for a friend last year and on their credit card page someone tried to be smart and failed, it checked for they key pressed to ensure only numbers but didn’t account for the fact that not everyone use QWERTY (on a French azerty you need to use shift to use the top row of numbers, without shift it’s accented letters and the like).
I kept thinking there was probably something in their tos pushing the blame on me if any issue happened since I had to bypass their security feature.
- concerned_user 7y agoJust bad code where they took the actual key codes being pressed not the characters they map into, which made the code reject anything with shift pressed.
