The passlib library, previously used for password hashing in this project, is no longer actively maintained — its last update was over 4 years ago. This has been confirmed here: link to the issue.

To improve long-term security and maintainability, this PR replaces passlib with direct usage of the bcrypt library, which is actively maintained and widely used for secure password hashing.

@karta9821, thank you!

Seems that passlib is dead, and sooner or later we have to take this step.

Changes are not breaking - previously created users can login.

ToDo:

  • We can also remove types-passlib dev dependency.
  • Before merging, I would regenerate and commit uv.lock

passlib was recently replaced with pwdlib with Argon2 in FastAPI repository: fastapi/fastapi#13917

So, we should probably be consistent here and also use pwdlib in this repo

@YuriiMotov
I prefer this approach over #1941.

Compared to replacing passlib with pwdlib:

  • Fewer dependencies: No need for pwdlib, argon2-cffi, cffi, pycparser
  • Simpler code: Direct bcrypt calls vs another password hashing abstraction
  • No unnecessary features: Argon2 support isn't needed if the existing hashes are bcrypt

The bcrypt library is already a transitive dependency through passlib, so this is essentially just removing the passlib wrapper.

I prefer this approach over #1941.
Compared to replacing passlib with pwdlib:
  • Fewer dependencies: No need for pwdlib, argon2-cffi, cffi, pycparser
  • Simpler code: Direct bcrypt calls vs another password hashing abstraction
  • No unnecessary features: Argon2 support isn't needed if the existing hashes are bcrypt
The bcrypt library is already a transitive dependency through passlib, so this is essentially just removing the passlib wrapper.

The passlib library, previously used for password hashing in this project, is no longer actively maintained — its last update was over 4 years ago. This has been confirmed here: link to the issue.
To improve long-term security and maintainability, this PR replaces passlib with direct usage of the bcrypt library, which is actively maintained and widely used for secure password hashing.

@karta9821, thank you!
Seems that passlib is dead, and sooner or later we have to take this step.
Changes are not breaking - previously created users can login.
ToDo:
  •  We can also remove types-passlib dev dependency.
  •  Before merging, I would regenerate and commit uv.lock

passlib was recently replaced with pwdlib with Argon2 in FastAPI repository: fastapi/fastapi#13917
So, we should probably be consistent here and also use pwdlib in this repo
