Pre-submission Checks

  • I checked for similar issues, but could not find any. I also checked the closed issues. I could not contribute additional information to any existing issue.
  • I will take the time to fill in all the required fields. I know that the bug report may be dismissed otherwise due to lack of information.

Describe the bug

I just realized that whenever a user is typing their password when logging in to their client - it will show as clear text, not cryptic. When changing the focus to a different window and going back to the client - it will show the encryption. See video attached.

Expected behavior

Password should be cryptic all the time.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. login window of the Desktop client on mac
  2. Enter password
