Description: The admin plugin has a undocumented default-value for --admin-password (see #53014). How to repeat: ... if (!config->admin_username) config->admin_username = g_strdup("root"); if (!config->admin_password) config->admin_password = g_strdup("secret"); Suggested fix: remove the default value and force the user to provide a setting if the admin plugin is loaded.
