Description

Relayed from Gary on IRC, a support customer had a complex CARP VHID password which contained some special characters.

Due to this, it failed to bring up their CARP VIPs. The interface existed, but had no IP address.

The password was:

<password>21/K},vDX]$'=8gKOzNbzc?</password>

In the code, it looks like the password has spaces removed and is double quoted ("") so it may be choking on the $ in the password.

Most likely, the password just needs to be escaped better, or the offending characters flagged as invalid input.
