Description

Yesterday I just installed kali-light from 2019.4 and after update today I just trying to unlock my encrypted volume while I typed a wrong digit at passphrase and to erase that I used backspace, there backspace doesn't removed words it just start filling the space with keyword or say keystroke like I am using some keyword for password not backspace means it doesn't erase words it starts filling space.

  1. Install kali in encrypted volume.
  2. After installation while bootedup start kali.
  3. While it ask for passphrase there type 3 keyword then use backspace, then it will become 4 to 5 to 6 as much backspace is hitted it won't delete keywords it start adding keywords.
