Hello,

Calling GET or POST return different stengrh.
Example:
test password: 4fE5#@_

XXX:2083/cpsessXXXX/backend/passwordstrength.cgi?password=4fE5#@_
GET Result:    { "strength": 1 } 
POST Result:  { "strength": 64 } 

Where can be the problem?

  Try URI escaping your GET params, as when I did that, I had no issues:

  perl -MURI::Escape -e 'print URI::Escape::uri_escape("4fE5#\@_");'
  4fE5%23%40_

  Works as expected when using 4fE5%23%40_ in your GET params
