Description

Safari suggesting passwords with random length even when maxlength is specified if there are 2 password fields (password and confirm password). I am using rule like ` passwordrules="minlength: 1; maxlength: 5; required: digit;"` in both fields but Safari is suggesting 596688170883728 password.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the report in Safari with two password fields using the shown passwordrules value. Check whether the generated password exceeds maxlength only when confirmation is present; done means the behavior is explained or the repository documents a confirmed fix or limitation.
