- select your user
- click on "***" next to to "password"
- enter your current password, your new password with an extra char type, then enter your password -> an incorrect password sign is displayed
- click on the first "new password" entry and delete the extra char

the "incorrect password" icon should go away

Check new password matching after focusing out of either entry

Update the verify entry with possible validation error after
focusing out both the new password entry and the verify entry.
Previously the user could mistype his new password in the new
password entry, but when it was corrected, the verify entry
was still indicating that the confirmation password does not
match despite it actually did.
