So I went to install WP v6.3 using Softaculous on one of my hosts and noticed that the system I use for admin pwords is no longer considered strong. I got rejected at 78/100 (requires 85/100).
I use a 12 character mix comprised of numbers, cap letters, non cap letters, and 3 special characters. No actual words. It is a system that changes between web sites in a way that is easy for me to apply and remember. 78/100
I got curious:
ReallyWeakPW#123 = 100/100
P@$$word#12345 = 91/100
ComeOnIn12345! = 91/100
password1234567890 = 93/100
So basically, the strength estimator in Softaculous really just counts characters?
Any way to override this requirement, because my system is more secure despite the length difference?
