Yeah, this is pretty minor. But we should still hash-token it the same way we did for createaccount.

patch - v1

If someone accesses token.cgi directly, it will now get the "Suspicious Action" confirmation page (which I can live with, though I still don't think this bug must be fixed). But if the user clicks the confirmation button, it fails complaining that the page doesn't exist.

Please leave this bug alone. Just because a bug is not fixed immediately doesn't mean it will never be fixed. And if we decide it's minor enough to not be fixed, we will close it as wontfix, not invalid.

The reason of the error I mentioned in comment 3 is because both global/confirm-action.html.tmpl and account/auth/login-small.html.tmpl use a variable named "script_name", and so login-small.html.tmpl was overwritting the value passed to confirm-action.html.tmpl. The fix is to simply rename the variable in login-small.html.tmpl to something else.

r=reed

works as expected, and direct access to token.cgi with loginname=[e-mail]&a=reqpw shows the suspicious action page, and I am able to continue passed it fine.

I will have to backport the patch to 4.2 as token.cgi is very different between 4.2 and 4.4.

Backport for 4.2. No code change, only fixed a conflict in token.cgi.

Technically, you're doing the check in token.cgi in a different spot than trunk, but not sure it really matters. Though, I suspect it makes more sense to get the super-basic checks done (like valid e-mail address format) before doing token check (which can take more perf), but whatever...
