Flagging as blocker, we definitely want a reset button that works. |
|
More importantly, the old recovery passphrase and key are still valid after the resetting procedure! |

Updated the title & description to reflect this |

Looks like this regressed in matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk#1311 |

We re-used the old SSSS key even when resetting, meaning we prompted the user to create a new passphrase but then ignored it and kept using the old one. Fixes vector-im/riot-web#13212

Is key reset expected to work on Riot Android 0.9.10 and RiotX 0.18.1? After resetting it's showing a different set of devices as verified on Riot Android and RiotX than riot-web. Can file bug/send rageshake if necessary. |

It asks for the SSSS password after prompting you for a new one, but then appears to store the new cross-signing secrets with the old SSSS key, so your password stays the same.
