Security: Automatic fill in of password, when changing password.

Issue descriptionI use chrome to access my gmail account. Like many people I have clicked on "save my password" for easy fast access to my gmail account, which is the primary and only motive for which my friends and I save our passwords, to avoid typing it every time. The other day, I wanted to change my password, and when I clicked to change it, the screen prompted me to the log in screen, which automatically filled since I had saved my password. The issue is that the additional security step of re-logging in prompt to change a password, is defeated at the moment the screen auto fills for the users who have saved their password before. It shouldnt autofill, because if I let anyone lay hands on my computer, with a saved password(without telling them the password) they can easily change the password automatically, either on purpose or by accident. |
