Credit card with same verification number should not show up in duplicate password section?

In an unfortunate(?) event, I have two credit cards that are from different bank which have the same verification number (CVV2). I'm auditing my password, and I was surprised that 1Password is telling me that two of my credit cards are having the same verification number.

I feel like 1Password should just hide credit card from this security audit section, as the only way I could change verification number of one of the card is to request a new card. I don't think having a duplicate verification number poses any risk to the user.

Thank you,
Prem

  • Hi @sikachu ,

    That's a very good point. Honestly, we haven't seen that come up before. Because it's technically a password field, it gets considered along with every other password. I'll send a request to the dev team to omit credit card CVVs from duplicate checking.

    Thanks for letting us know!

    Cheers,

    Thanks @ag_kevin!

    While you're at it, I also noticed that there's one of my credit card that was issued since 2011 showed up in "3+ years old" section on security audit as well. I actually never replaced that card apparently ...

    So, I guess it might be better to just make the security audit ignores all credit cards?

  • Hi @sikachu ,

    Thanks for letting us know. That's a good suggestion.
