    Quick follow-up:

    With the great help from Dropbox support we found a perfect explanation for the observed behaviour. There are situations (like confirming the permanent deletion of files) where an expired password will be accepted as valid.

    Thanks for your help, everyone!

I don’t really need support – I’d like to report something that *might* turn out as a security issue. So I’d rather not write about it in public here.

What’s the protocol here? Where can I report this?

I am not aware of anything, sorry. All I can suggest is hoping somebody who works for Dropbox picks it up tomorrow. 

Edit: actually you can try https://bugcrowd.com/dropbox
