 Severity:  minor        |    Keywords:  password setup
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 The password field in setup-config.php is set as type="text", so when you
 install WordPress, the password is visible as you type it. This is not
 only dangerous if you have someone around but it is also a possible risk
 if someone gets into that machine later, form fields are remembered by the
 browser most of the times.

 In order to fix this we just need to set the field type as password,
 type="password".
