Login Citrix: Wrong password is stored
-

Hello, I noticed this little but annoying problem:
When I login to my companyĀ“s citrix site, there are three entry fields:
First for username, second for a smartphone-generated one-time PIN, third for the password.When I enter the data on page, opera does save the one-time PIN in the second field, but not the password.
Any way to fix this?
Regards

How does Chrome handle it? Opera and Chrome are both based on Chromium. The problem could be in Chromium.
Right-click on each field and choose "inspect" to see what the type attribute value is. Does the third have type="password"? Does the first one have type="username"? What does the pin one have? Do any of them have autocomplete="off"?

@burnout426 Thanks for your answer.
Chrome does the same.
I checked the attributes with "inspect". The type for the second and third entry field is set to attribute="password". The problem might be that the third field (for the real password) is named id ="passwd1", while the second one (for the one-time RSA number) is named id="passwd".
So obviously the browser is led to think the field named "passwd" is the password.
Dang. Seems to be a tricky one.
Maybe itĀ“s useless to find a general solution just by logic.Perhaps... if there is more than one password-field, the browser could either ask the user, which one to save or just save all password-fields?
If you want to have a look at the page IĀ“m talking about: itĀ“s www/vapp/vkb/de
(slashes are dots, of course).I think itĀ“s a standard citrix login screen.

Okay.

It's good they have type="password",
The problem might be that the third field (for the real password) is named id ="passwd1", while the second one (for the one-time RSA number) is named id="passwd".
What name="" do they have (as opposed to id="" you mentioned)?
But, the big question is, do you see autocomplete="off" for the third field? If so, that tells the browser not to save it.
I'm also not sure what's supposed to happen when there are 2 type="password" fields when it comes to saving passwords.

Refused connection? Oh. DonĀ“t know why.The name field for both password-fields is "a" followed by a long number of about 15 digits each.
Both have autovomplete = "off". But the first (one-time) passwors is saved anyway.Dang.
Of course normally there is only one password-field on each page.
ThatĀ“s handled very well by opera.On my companieĀ“s page thereĀ“s a kind of two-factor identification:
The password I know (which IĀ“d like to save) and the one-time transaction number I get from a special app on my mobile (which is useless to save.
I think there would be no problem if the passwort field would be the first password-field,
but alas itĀ“s the second.So I think Opera canĀ“t handle this at the moment.
Is there a way to suggest the idea of the the dialogue-window to the dev-team?
(if there is more than one password-field, ask the user, which one to save)Thanks for your help!

You can test https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/lastpass-free-password-ma/hdokiejnpimakedhajhdlcegeplioahd in Opera to see what it does for the site. It might work better. (You can turn off Opera's saving of passwords at
opera://settings/passwordsso you can use just the extension's.) -

@burnout426 I tried the extension, but no use.
Do you know how to make suggestions to the dev-team?

I forgot though. With Opera's password management, try with https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/autocomplete-on/kkffidhhikbopjomeeaihconieppiaan installed in Opera to override autocomplete="off" just to see what happens.
