• [6.8.x] VM VNC Password field always auto-completed with login page password

    Yes, I save my credentials in my browser. I know that makes me an evil, non-security-minded person. I don't even put passwords on the VNC interface of my VMs. Let's move on.

    When I'm reconfiguring VMs since updating to the 6.8.x versions of unraid, Chrome's password manager thinks that the VNC Password field is the same field as the main login page password field, and tries to fill in the password. I often don't notice it and end up having to re-edit the VM again because I've started it but couldn't connect.

     

    Does anyone else have this issue?


    I know this is super trivial and minor, but it's super annoying. Any chances this could be looked at?

    That's not an Unraid problem. That has been a Chrome issue (sort of) for years.

    Basically it doesn't distinguish password boxes under the same site. If it's a password box, it will autofill.

    This has caught me out a few times.

    Latest PFsense release managed this issue by adding autocomplete=new-password to the form e.g.

    <input type="password" autocomplete=new-password />
