Hi
FYI
On version 7.5.5
One of my moderators reported below, I have personally seen once before a few years ago that I had a password same as him 123456789123456789
Don't know where it came from but I changed it. ruffly same story.
see the members feedback below it was today or yesterday

I had entered the preferences page to update some
Of my other options, in the password section was a series of dots, I just ignored them. When I saved the changes I made
My phone asked if I wanted to update the password, so I clicked yes. When I tried to login on my laptop with my normal password it wouldn’t do so. So I looked on my phone for the new saved password which had changed to 123456789123456789, logged in and then updated
My password with one I would want to use.

I’ve updated my preferences a few times and this has never happened before.

123456789123456789 is simply a placeholder on the changebasic and editbasic pages for the password field so that it appears populated; the changebasic and editbasic script pages ignore the password field when this value is present.

Code
	if ($ChosenPassword != "123456789123456789") {
		$changepassword = 1;
		$ChosenPassword = md5($ChosenPassword);
	}

It is odd that the system allowed the page to process the password change to this value as it's specifically coded to ignore that value.
