Password length — JSON parse error

[vmatekole]

When creating wallets with large length passwords e.g. 70+ with both alphanumeric and symbol-based characters, there appears to be a very serious issue in that passwords are not valid. With various permutations, I get the attached message JSON parse error. I haven't had time to figure exact lengths where issue starts but I do get consistent errors at 100+ characters.

Thankfully, no funds were lost but it does appear that there are some restrictions concerning password length and/or character types that are not validated upon creating the wallet and only appear when trying to log back into the wallet, putting at risk the users funds.

Additionally, the password generator used was Keepass X.

Example password:

9b^cqz9b;9pPW^^)]/[R^Vx8:K-Y-Hq:f@a}BX-+AFDeN3m6Cc{*$pzjz{:pf$X[wXQ]@XjBNP'/;Ju>H`2[BMxZNP_UhbE2yz?uyH7i(Cfmq'.}/;{D,

Have you tried current master of the prebuilt binary from digitalbitbox.com?

There is a fix for the password max length in #274.
The next release which includes that fix will be release soon.

@jonasschnelli No, I just bought a bitbox and downloaded the latest binaries for the website. When will it be published?

This should be fixed now in the current available software.
Can you confirm @vmatekole?
