I have a question about the Cookie key and the question of password generation of the platform.
I currently have version 1.6.0.14, now I am upgrading to version 1.7.2.4, in a new installation / host, I know that a new key to the cookie is generated when installing this new installation, I wonder if is there any way to update the passwords of all clients according to this new cookie and not use the cookie from the old version? And if I want to change the cookie manually, is there any way to regenerate the passwords arranged in the database? Or am I doomed to always use the same cookie key?
Taking into account the same scenario as the 1.6.0.14 store, the database has more than 50,000 registered clients, where the password encryption chosen is Rijndael with the mcrypt library, the question is, if I change to the adapted Blowfish class, what would be the behavior with the rest of the passwords of the clients already registered? Would they be regenerated with the new encryption class? Would there be an incorrect password error for all clients already in the database?
