📄 Description

Summary by cubic

Added docs on how to disable the /is-username-available endpoint to reduce username enumeration. Also hardened login by hashing passwords on invalid usernames and moved username/displayUsername normalization earlier in the flow.

  • Bug Fixes

    • Hash password when account is not found during sign-in to mitigate timing-based username discovery.

  • Refactors

    • Run username/displayUsername normalization before other hooks for /sign-up/email and /update-user.

Written for commit 55a6bb0729. Summary will update automatically on new commits.
