Comment (by hideishi):

 Well, meny sites rely on automatic updates for keeping WordPress core,
 plugins and themes fresh and secure.
 Sites configured with such credentials are jeopadized without backporting.
 In this sense, it is a security issue.
 I would very much appreciate if you could consider to backport to 6.6 and
 6.7 in which this issue occurs.
