I have added a regex which will check for least 8 characters, at least one number, one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter and one special character This is the regex Used
'(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[0-9])(?=.*[$@$!%*?&])[A-Za-zd$@$!%*?&].{8,}'
The above regex works fine for most of the scenarios but when I use
1oB!gb0s5
or
Pass@123
It fails. Can anyone tell me the issue here.
Here is the portion of your regex which actually consumes the input:
[A-Za-zd$@$!%*?&].{8,}
This means that the password must start with one of the characters in the above character class. It also means that a valid password must have nine or more characters, because the class counts for one, and {8,} means 8 or more. So the following would fail because it does not begin with any such character:
1oB!gb0s5
The second example you gave fails for a different reason, because it only has 8 characters:
Pass@123
I don't know exactly what logic you want here. If you just want to ensure that a password has a lowercase, uppercase, number, and special character, then maybe you can remove the leading character class and just stick with the lookaheads:
(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[0-9])(?=.*[$@$!%*?&]).{8,}
Here is a demo which shows that your two example passwords would pass using the above pattern.
