Im using >40 chars with no problems.
The only place in the code I can quickly find that limits the password size is the password "forgotpassword" form that limits the input to 64 chars

I checked out the current master branch and found at least at three places in the sourcecode hardcoded limitations of the password filed, two of them where limeted to 40, one to 240 chars. There is no reason why you limit the password field. Furthermore I haven't found a backend check for the length. I hope that other inputs are checked in the backend... I'll make a Pull Request at the weekend. Furthermore I see, that you are using old PHP functions and bad code. I'll write some more Bugtickets soon.

@ffroehlich : usage of new Branch inside LimeSurvey repo is for LimeSurvey GMBH team. For external devloper : use your own repo and make pull request

Yes, branches are only accessible by employees at LimeSurvey GmbH. External devs should use PRs instead.

That is too complicated for me... Here is the git diff

Furthermore I found some critical vulnerabilities and I'll report them soon with a CVE number. Is there a way to report the Issues to you before they are published?
