Authorization in 3 fields

Post by alkas » 2020-07-30, 10:02

Website: issue.cacert.org
1. field: Username
2. field: Password
3. field: 2 factor token
4. element: Login button
Credentials are saved.

The authentication form opens. No drop-down clue in the 1st field, no reaction to click. But click into the 2nd field shows the saved username (in drop-down). If I select it, then the 2nd field is filled with the proper password and 1st field remains empty. Now clicking the 1st field offers the saved username (drop-down). If selected, both credentials are properly filled, the login is possible.
Why is there such behaviour?

Welcome to the forum alkas,

In my case, this site generates an insecure connection warning dialog:

Yes, it does.

issue.cacert.org uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because it was signed using a signature algorithm that was disabled because that algorithm is not secure.

(Error code: SEC_ERROR_CERT_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM_DISABLED)
cURL says this:

Code: Select all

$ curl https://issue.cacert.org
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain
More details here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html
Certificate chain is incomplete.

CACert hasn't been a trusted root authority since the beginning of the last decade.

The point is not CAcert, but any login form with 3 fields authentication form. I'll try to find another "3-fields-login" website.
