I had the same sounding problem. I could use mysql as linux/root user but not with mysql workbench. After searching the web I found ...

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'validate_password%';

Check whether your password conforms to the server restrictions.

If not reset with:
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY '1NewPassword!";
