I agree, you are able to see the password by using -A, but isn't the same true if you use Wireshark's
GUI? Wireshark will start dumpcap with the -A command line argument and voila, ps provides it.


Yes, that's a bug, too.  The password should be passed to dumpcap through a pipe, or something such as that.

And, yes, dumpcap should also support -A giving a user name but not a password, and should prompt for a password from 
the user.
