    Let's wait for the fix. Until then we should stay with the current version 3.18.2
    @girish: better stop the rollout of 4.0.0

      @luckow thanks for the heads up. I have stopped the roll out already but I am trying to reproduce the issue right now.

        OK, I can reproduce this. People can login with any password đŸ˜• I have revoked the release. I have also left a note on the GitHub issue.

            Yep, it really is. I just checked my install and it'd already updated to 4.0 and I was able to login as anyone using any password.

            Everyone ought to check if their installs of Rocket.Chat and revert to an earlier backup ASAP!

            What I love about Cloudron was how quickly I was able to restore a backup and fix this problem all while on my phone.

            And of course that we have great people like @luckow in our community who come here and tell us all about the issue in the first place! Thanks! (I wonder if this post could be highlighted somehow? This is a serious security bug)

            I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner
