Bug with special character $ in password at Cerbo GX SSH Root/Superuser

Hello,


At the Cerbo when setting the SuperUser password (SSH Root password) via the GUI (as well as via the VRM and using a PC/Keyboard as on the GX screen), setting a password with a combination of - and $ doesn't work. You can not login with SSH with username root and this special character password.


It took me some time to find out. But finally, setting an easy password (capital, numbers, etc.) works.



To reproduce: Setup a Superuser password with special characters $ and - (combination).

Now try to login using SSH with user root and this special password. Also try it after a reboot.



Tested on latest Venus 3.50~9 with Cerbo GX with small GX touchscreen and VRM portal and Putty v0.81.
