 When I attempted to use a password consisting of 256 characters and tried
 to publish my post, I encountered an error message stating, "Updating
 failed. Could not update post in the database." It appears that this issue
 may affect all users. Therefore, I kindly request that you consider
 addressing this problem by either fixing it or implementing validation on
 the input field to prevent such errors in the future.

 I used below password for password protect post :

 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345
