Title: Passkey bumping Last modified: January 16, 2026 --- # Passkey bumping * Resolved [wpprup](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wppraesenz/) * (@wppraesenz) * [4 months, 3 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/passkey-bumping/) * Hello, I am really thankful that you integrated passkeys now, as already said. I am experiencing the following behavior:In the log in window to the admin backend I click the button to log in with a passkey. Then the window changes to only the username field and this I fill, then pressing the log in with a passkey-button.( I think up to here it is the normal process.) Instantly I see two error messages and despite that the Windows Hello request for the fingerprint appears (the regular behavior). Then I give the fingerprint, but it does not log in.When I repeat the process, I can log in – just like it should be.The error massages obviously seem to react faster than Windows Hello can react and they prevent the log in, I think. Perhaps they could be a bit more patient, then everything would be fine… 😉 * The picture is but not consistent. On one website the process (always done as described) works fine, on three sites not. Consistent is but the behavior per website. * Error messages: Website one:“Authentication ceremony was sent an abort signalThe authenticator was unable to process the specified options, or could not create a new assertion signature” – second trial successful * On another website: “Authentication ceremony was sent an abort signalThe operation either timed out or was not allowed. See: [https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn-2/#sctn-privacy-considerations-client](https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn-2/#sctn-privacy-considerations-client)”– second trial successful * On a third website only: “Authentication ceremony was sent an abort signal” – log in with the first trial here successful.Perhaps you can improve the process using these informations. Thanks.

Thank you for reporting this! This is the first time seeing such errors, and we would definitely would like to check further and see if this is actually something causes by our plugin or by an interaction with some other plugins or custom code from the site. Feel free to email us at [support@melapress.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/passkey-bumping/support@melapress.com?output_format=md) with a note about this thread, so we can correlate, and we’ll surely get back to to you as soon as we can. Looking forward to your update! * Thread Starter [wpprup](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wppraesenz/) * (@wppraesenz) * [4 months, 3 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/passkey-bumping/#post-18790430) * I think I could pin down the reason. It is not a plugin, it is the password manager“ Roboform” (here as a browser extension) I am using that interferes in the login process. When I fill in the user name manually, the process runs correctly. I think I have to contact their support… 😉 - This reply was modified 4 months, 3 weeks ago by [wpprup](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wppraesenz/). * Plugin Support [Lucian Padureanu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucianwpwhite/) * (@lucianwpwhite) * [4 months, 3 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/passkey-bumping/#post-18790457) * Thanks for the update [@wppraesenz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wppraesenz/)!

And I contacted the RF support and they confirmed after some checks on my side (deactivating RF etc.) that it is your plugin that causes the problem. Although one can live with multiple login trials it would certainly be good if this was solved. Thank you very much. * Plugin Support [Lucian Padureanu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucianwpwhite/) * (@lucianwpwhite) * [3 months, 2 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/passkey-bumping/#post-18833831) * Thank you for the update [@wppraesenz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wppraesenz/)!
