            Bug ID: 109175
           Summary: Writer: Password With Special Characters Does Not
                    Validate
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.0.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: gpowers at gmail.com

Description:
Is there anyone examining this issue? I'm experiencing difficulty encrypting
Writer 5.0.3.2 files with special characters. Was under the impression I was
losing my mind, but I was able to replicate the issue with a new document.

Is there an issue with the comparison boxes in Writer? I could not break it,
but if there is a mismatch that passed, it may explain the failure. That's all
I have -- underscore, a number, and an ampersand. (English, US, UTF-8)

Steps to Reproduce:
 1. Open Writer with new file.
 2. Click to save and check, "Save with Password."
 3. When prompted, use "Sp3ci&l_Chars" without quotes in each box.
 4. Close document.
 5. Open document.
 6. When prompted, re-enter "Sp3ci&l_Chars" without quotes in password.
 7. Decryption fails.

Actual Results:  
Could not decrypt Writer document.

Expected Results:
File decrypted, normally.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No
