Bug description

If i have saved my login informations for the nextcloud website/installation in my browser (firefox) - e.g. user "username" passwort "secret" - and i share a folder or file as link with password protection, nextcloud uses as default my passwort "secret", even if i choose to generate an own password. I have to open the menu for sharing the file again and replace the autofilled password with a new one.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Save your login credentials to your browser
  2. Share a file/folder with external link and password protection
  3. generate a password
  4. after press "save" it uses my login password

Expected behavior

Use the generated password instead my saved nextcloud login password
