# BUG-005 — Password confirmation is compared case-insensitively

- **Priority:** Critical
- **Severity:** Blocker
- **Environment:** Chrome 128, desktop
- **Steps to reproduce:**
  1. Fill in all form fields with valid data
  2. Enter `Secret12` in the "Password" field
  3. Enter `secret12` (same string, lowercase) in "Confirm password"
  4. Click "Create account"
- **Expected result:** Error "Passwords do not match" — the strings differ when case is considered
- **Actual result:** The form treats the passwords as matching; registration succeeds
- **Impact:** A user may accidentally set a password that differs from what they intended to type — risk of being unable to log in later
