Login item with no password flagged by Watchtower as "Vulnerable Password"

Hello @nosepickinglawyer! 👋

Using 1Password 8, you can choose to have Watchtower ignore certain items if you don't want to see warnings for those items:

I hope that helps! 🙂

Thanks, but that doesn't help. The issue isn't the warning itself, it's that the warning is incorrect. When there is no password, it, by definition, cannot be vulnerable, let alone listed on a compromised list.

@nosepickinglawyer

Thank you for clarifying. I've done some testing and I can confirm that I can reproduce the issue: if a password in the default password field is flagged as vulnerable and then is deleted (rather than replaced) then the Watchtower banner will remain until that default field is updated with a new secure password.

I've opened a work item so that our developers can investigate further.

As a temporary workaround, can you try the following steps:

1. Open and unlock 1Password for Mac.
2. Click on 1Password next to the  in the menu bar.
3. Click on Preferences.
4. Click Privacy.
5. Uncheck "Check for vulnerable passwords".
6. Wait ten seconds.
7. Check "Check for vulnerable passwords".

Do you still see the banner?

I've already taken care of the items through other means, but I'll keep this in mind if it happens again. Thanks!

Thank you again for reporting the issue. 🙂
