    I’m not sure how long the “password strength” meter / functionality has been live, but customers have complained that they cannot reset their passwords.

    As I tested it, it seems that the regex is buggy. As I type, the password can go from valid > invalid > back to valid by adding *additional* characters. Also, some passwords that satisfy the (poorly-defined) requirements also fail to validate.

    For example:

    SamplePass2015!# => invalid (weak) …. why is this invalid? certainly not weak
    SamplePass2015!## => valid (medium) …. why?
    SamplePass2015!### => invalid (weak) …. ?
    SamplePass2015!#### => invalid (weak) …. ?
    SamplePass2015!##### => valid (medium) …. ?

    This is a critical issue, as it’s keeping users from successfully registering and resetting passwords.

    Please advise.
