Description:
Shows effect of different fonts used to generate CAPTCHA
The CAPTCHA on the login/signup page in Special:UserLogin overflows the container because it doesn't have any specified size parameter to constrain it.
Version: unspecified
Severity: trivial

The size parameter probably isn't the best way of doing this. If we shrink, or cut off the captcha, it becomes unreadable or unusable. the box should just expand with the captcha...

How did you generate that CAPTCHA, and (relatedly) on what site did you take that screenshot?
I've never seen that in WMF production, so I suspect your system may be using the wrong fonts.

The design of the login form looks like MW1.21 or similar, have you tried to update your MediaWiki and ConfirmEdit version?
