Trying to set a password you used before shows "Not strong enough"
The bug
When you try to set a password you have used before it shows you "Not strong enough! Must be at least 8 characters. Mix numbers, letters and symbols." even if the password matches these criteria. This can be quite confusing. Showing a more appropriate message might be better (unless it reveals too much about how the user chooses their passwords).

Cannot confirm, maybe you are experiencing WEB-959
The system might be slightly bugged IF this is not supposed to happen in the first place. I agree with the better message, if it was supposed to happen, yet appears wrong.
I can see the message being "Try a different password, this one might be a easy to figure out".
Then again, it might have already been fixed, it's 13 Nov 2018 that I'm posting this.
Seems to be fixed now. Error says "You can't enter a password you've used before. Sorry!"
