Maybe this has been already found and discussed, but...

I think I found a bug in Blockchain.info wallet. I reported this several days ago using their customer support system but got no reply (even confirmation that my request was accepted).

If you enable a second password in your wallet, you can still change the main password without entering the second one. When you try to change your main password you are asked for a secondary but you can just click "Cancel" and continue: you will see a standard "Confirm Password Change" and if you confirm the main password will be changed. As simple as that.

Edit: It's even worse, you can put anything as a secondary password, you can still proceed with changing the main password. I don't get it. Maybe it is as planned?

So can anyone confirm this? Is it a bug or a feature? Is there anyway to get it fixed as it's critical if you want to use it as  "monitoring only" wallet for several users?

Im concerned with the fact that the 2FA by way of text only kicks in half of the time. Allowing me 1FA access sometimes.
