You are working on a cybersecurity project, and your task is to create a secure password validation system for a company$$s employee login portal. The system must:

$1.$ Validate passwords based on the following rules:

$$ Minimum $10$ characters.

$$ Contains at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one digit, and one special character $(!$@#$$\%^$&$*).$

$$ No spaces are allowed.

$$ The password should not be easily guessable $($avoid common patterns such as $$password$123$ or $$admin$!).$

$2.$ Implement rate limiting: After $3$ invalid attempts, the system should lock the user out for $5$ seconds before allowing another attempt.

$3.$ Track repeated passwords: If a user tries the same invalid password more than once, it should raise a

custom RepeatedPasswordError.

$4.$ Implement multi$-$layer validation:

$$ First, check if the password meets the structural requirements.

$$ Then, check if the password is secure by consulting a predefined list of common passwords and patterns.

$$ Lastly, ensure that no part of the user$$s previous invalid attempts matches the new password attempt.

You must implement proper error handling for all scenarios.

Tasks

$1.$ Custom Exceptions: Write and use the following custom exception classes:

$-$ RepeatedPasswordError to handle repeated password attempts.

$-$ WeakPasswordError for passwords that are either too short or too weak $($common

passwords or easily guessable patterns$).$

$-$ InvalidStructureError for passwords that do not meet the structural criteria.

$2.$ Password Validation Function: Write a function validate$\_$password$($password$,$

previous$\_$attempts$)$ that:

$-$ Raises InvalidStructureError if the password is shorter than $10$ characters, does not

contain uppercase$/$lowercase letters, or lacks special characters.

$-$ Raises WeakPasswordError if the password is found in the list of common passwords or contains common patterns such as $$password$123$ or $$admin$!.$

$-$ Raises RepeatedPasswordError if the password has been previously attempted during the same session.

$3.$ Error Handling and Rate Limiting: Write a script that:

$-$ Tracks the number of failed attempts. If there are $3$ invalid attempts in a row, locks the user out for $5$ seconds before allowing another attempt.

$-$ Uses a try$-$except block to handle all errors and displays an appropriate message for each.

$-$ After every password attempt, print $$Attempt completed$$ using the finally block.

$4.$ User Input and Interaction: Implement a loop that continuously prompts the user to enter a valid password. The program should only stop when a valid password is entered or if the user gives up after $5$ failed attempts $($after applying rate limiting$).$

$5.$ Exception Handling Without Custom Exceptions: Implement a feature where the user is prompted to input their password twice $($for confirmation$).$ Ensure that:

$-$ If the two inputs do not match, an exception is raised and handled $($you may use a built$-$ in exception such as ValueError$).$

$-$ If the passwords match, the system proceeds to the validation process
