Minor security vulnerability on the n800, or an overreaction?

Filed under: n800 n770, n800 security — admira @ 3:38 am

I just found something interesting in the browser on the n800. If you are at a website which has a username and password (where the password is one of those **** fields) – if you click on the username and type that in then click on the password field, when you type the password it doesn’t show the letters in the predictive text area. Thats all well and good.

However…

If you use the down dpad key, it does show what you type (your password) as a full word in the predictive text bit of the keyboard. This seems like a bit of a flaw, or am I just being paranoid?
