Is your account local or a NIS account ? It seems very recent YaST on first install set up the first (local) user with a DES hash, even though /etc/login.defs has SHA512. There have been two reddit threads on this issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/dwizyf/does_gnome_have_a_character_limit_for_the_login/ (presumably this is OP) https://www.reddit.com/r/openSUSE/comments/dz26m3/kde_screen_lock_is_it_a_known_bug/ Seems like installer bug, not Gnome. Will try to reproduce on a fresh install in a VM shortly. This is likely to be bug 1155695 (In reply to Neil Rickert from comment #3) > This is likely to be bug 1155695 You're right. Issue seems to be tracked in bug 1155735. This is quite a serious issue for anyone who installed off 201911* media, hopefully will be fixed very soon; in any case users will have to be told to change passwords. There is a discussion on Factory list as well today (20191121). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1155735 *** |
Created attachment 824100 [details] About screen in Gnome Hi, I've discovered that the Gnome lock screen only requires the first 8 characters of my password to unlock. My password is 14 characters long.
