Password Change Review Patterns
Match Readback
A static password match readback shows Hidden new entry, Matches confirmation, None shown error, and Ready to review status.
Program
Password match readbacks should show a safe match state without exposing a password or checking credentials.

Label the match readback.

The section is labelled by its visible heading. Show hidden new entry.

The new entry value is hidden. Show confirm and error rows.

The confirm entry and error rows are exact pinned data. Render ready status.

The status badge says the change is ready to review. Check match readback.

The check says the match state is shown without exposing the password. Check match honesty.

Hidden entry, match state, error state, status, and no live credential checks.
