Bug Description
Since updating to oneiric, plymouth displays the boot cryptsetup passphrases in the clear!
It's asterisks on the first device, which alone is a problem, see bug 778659.
Filing this new bug, since passphrases in the clear are another can of worms.
Wow! I commented it 10-13, the other report was filed on 10-18.
Way to take this seriously. (Yes Ubuntu, I am pissed.)
