Problem Description:  When installing CF 2016 I had copied in a CFAdmin password from a different document.  This caused the password to inadvertently get entered with a trailing space character.  Once I noticed the error I went to change the password within CFAdmin but in the Security area it would not except the "old" password with the trailing space (even though using the trailing space worked fine on the login screen and got me into CFAdmin).  This occurred in both Firefox and Chrome.

Steps to Reproduce:  Create a password with a trailing space during installation.  Login to CFAdmin using the password with the trailing space, then try and change that password in the Security area, and the "old" password will not be accepted.

Actual Result:  "old" password will not be accepted in Security area

Expected Result: "old" password with trailing space should be accepted and password can be changed.

Any Workarounds:
