Description Liangent 2013-05-15 07:05:02 UTC

Repro:

1. Request a password reset for User:A
2. Log in to the wiki as User:B
3. Go to [[Special:UserLogin]]
4. Try to log in as User:A using the password in the mail
5. Follow the instruction to set a new password for User:A

Result:

I'm still logged in as User:B.

Expected:

I'm now logged in as User:A.

btw the instruction in step 5 is:

You logged in with a temporary emailed code. *To finish logging in*, you must set a new password here:

Shamless plug: one way to fix this is to get rid of temporary passwords entirely (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/27472)
