This change has been made for security reasons due to hackers exploiting users who have exposed their instances to the internet with default credentials. Due to an [upstream bug](https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/19984) the generated password is not printed to the container logs, making it impossible to log in.
