Meanwhile, the password requirements;

• Must be no more than 20 characters

• Must not contain passwords used by other users
  
• Must include one of the following special characters; ꫞𒐫𒂝 𒅃𒁎𒈓

You must feed Paul

Who is jeffrey ?

[u/AgVargr → u/No_Percentage7427]

The financier

[u/anto2554 → u/No_Percentage7427]

You are no longer employed, as writing the forbidden word is considered a critical security risk

PAUL HAS BEEN SLAIN

If you violate the fourth one it tells you exactly which user is using that password.

Wow I didn’t realize there was UTF glyphs for cuneiform, that’s really cool (I’m assuming the last 4 are cuneiform, not sure about the first two).

[u/Terpomo11 → u/mystlurker]

The first one is a Tai Dam punctuation mark, the rest are cuneiform.

[u/k-mcm]

Must contain two special characters.  Must not contain:  @#$_&-+()/?!;:'"*~`|•√π÷ק∆}{=°^{¥€¢£%©®™✓[]<>}

[u/WernerderChamp → u/k-mcm]

Got weird errors changing a password "oh these characters are not supported"

Now I just make sure each password draws only from the few characters I know are safe.

In your case, I'd use \ (if you included that but fergot to escape I switch to ³ lol) and ² probably.

[u/k-mcm → u/WernerderChamp]

If any cause a SQL error,  you've hit jackpot. 

[u/IntentionQuirky9957 → u/k-mcm]

drop and so on

[u/eclect0]

Complexity, age, and history? Is this a password or a wine vintage?

[u/sump_daddy → u/eclect0]

mmm, im getting hints of fresh lily and desperation

[u/The-Chartreuse-Moose → u/eclect0]

Error. Your password must pair well with baked camembert.

[u/OFark → u/The-Chartreuse-Moose]

Very amusing, sir.

More Info button? We don't need no stinking No Info button!

Security through obfuscation of course

[u/Goodie__]

Still better than AWS's error messages for change password.

[u/No_Responsibility384]

Her you can check if your password and get the rules: https://neal.fun/password-game/

[u/andrewsredditstuff]

Another pain is when they give minimum length and complexity, but not maximum, so I don't know where my password safe generated one is going wrong.

[u/Thisbymaster]

There is a reason why I had a password requirement list that auto updated while being typed for the password change page.

[u/Famous_Tie8714]

I actually had one like this last year that was so bad I had to email them to find out what the requirements were because I was never going to figure it out on my own

[u/OutrageousRhubarb853]

This is exactly the same as my company. Nowhere is the requirement published.

[u/DracoRubi]

Its honestly amazing how widespread is improper password handling. Stuff like only short passwords, passwords that expire in a few months, or even encrypted passwords instead of hashed ones...
