[QUESTION] YK4 manual static pwd w/button does not work

2016-03-19T23:44:29+01:00

Hi, I have a new Yubikey 4 and found that regardless of whether I have "enable manual update using the button" checked or not in the Yubikey Personalization Tool "Settings" options, the Yubikey's static password cannot be changed by holding the button down for 10 seconds. It simply sends the existing password to the host immediately upon button press; the key does not wait for 10 seconds and then blink the "Y" LED waiting for another touch to process a static password change request. In short it does not behave the way my older Yubikey 2.x-series keys do in this regard, and it means that I'll have to use the personalization tool to manually program a new static password every time I need to. Big loss of functionality. Is this a change in key design, a bug in the firmware, or a bug in the personalization tool?

YK firmware is 4.2.8. Personalization tool version is 3.1.24, library version 1.17.3

Thanks for your help.
