Description
After upgrading from v1.2.7 to 1.4.3, users had no way of logging in.
I noticed that the UnsaltedMD5PasswordHasher.verify() was passing the wrong arguments to constant_time_compare(). The arg "encoded" includes the algorithm and prefix "md5$$", so we need to strip it out first.
Should change:
return constant_time_compare(encoded, encoded_2
To:
return constant_time_compare(encoded[5:], encoded_2)
