Extension auto-fills Wordpress page title field

Open shadowsofthesun opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Log in to a Wordpress site as an editor
  2. Editor must be Classic (not Gutenberg), which is accomplished via the "Classic Editor" plugin
  3. Go to edit a page
  4. Allow the session to timeout (or immediately) click auto-fill
  5. The Title field is replaced with your WP username

Expected Result

Your username is inserted only into the username field of the session timeout popup.

Actual Result

Your username is inserted into the Title field, as well as the username field of the session timeout popup. This can cause users to accidentally change the post title.

Additional Context

Field is marked as autocomplete="off". Full HTML is as follows.

<div id="titlewrap">
    <label class="screen-reader-text" id="title-prompt-text" for="title">Add title</label>
    <input type="text" name="post_title" size="30" value="[your page title]" id="title" spellcheck="true" autocomplete="off">
</div>

Wordpress 6.0.1. Seems to happen in the Classic editor, rather than Gutenberg. Also reported in Mar 2020, here: https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/issues/1190

@shadowsofthesun With some very recent large changes to how autofill works, is this still an issue?

Sorry, been busy... Yes, still happening in the browsers I tested: Firefox 124 and Brave 1.63.174 (Chromium 122.0.6261.128) with BW 2024.2.1 image
