getpass_r() in tool_getpass.c is reading password from stdout instead of stdin
fd should be set 0 when /dev/tty is unavailable.
char *getpass_r(const char *prompt, /* prompt to display */
                char *password,     /* buffer to store password in */
                size_t buflen)      /* size of buffer to store password in */
{
...
  int fd = open("/dev/tty", O_RDONLY);
  if(-1 == fd)
    fd = 1; /* use stdin if the tty couldn't be used */
...
}
