Passwords with special characters don't work

[davidhealey]

A password such as ,;:./?+-_*!”£$%^&() works via wordpress login, but fails with JWT Auth. What’s the solution?

I tested it and the password supplied works...

Thank you. For anyone else, this has lead me to figure out that the issue I'm having is caused by the mod security rules of my server. Specifically it's this: REQUEST-901-INITIALIZATION.conf

Hi,

I have the same problem but only with apostrophes.

Fixed with a change in class-auth.php, addslashes fx added (like I did before on the wp-api-jwt-auth plugin). $user = wp_authenticate($username, addslashes($password));

@pesseba can you check ?

Thank you :)
