I can access passwords *without* fingerprint or PIN

On my Samsung S9 running Android 10 I discovered that, since having installed one of the recent upgrades, I can now access the passwords *without* either entering my PIN or scanning my fingerprint, simply by tapping the "back" button for 6 or 7 times when the fingerprint or PIN is requested. This looks like a major security issue to me. Anyone else having this problem?
