Title:
  Gnome openvpn saves authenticator code as password

Status in network-manager-openvpn package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I added a VPN connection through Gnome settings. I configured the user
  and password. Once I try to connect, as I've already set the user and
  password, I'm only asked to inform the authentication code, as the VPN
  has MFA enabled. After I inform the authentication code, I'm able to
  connect to the VPN. If I disconnect and try to connect again, the
  authentication code was saved as if it was the password, so my
  authentication fails and I have to inform my password first, then
  after that I'm asked for the authentication code. The authentication
  code is being saved as the password, which shouldn't happen.
  Everything works but it's pretty annoying having to do that every
  time. I have another machine running Debian Trixie, which used to have
  the network-manager-openvpn in the same version and it used to happen
  the same thing. Now that it's updated to network-manager-openvpn
  (1.12.0-1) this issue is gone, probably fixed.
