- Migration 0005: user_credentials, password_history, password_reset_tokens, password_reset_attempts tables - passwordManager.js: bcrypt hashing (12 rounds), strength validation (12+ chars, upper/lower/digit/special), password history check (last 5), secure reset tokens (SHA-256 stored, raw sent via email), 30-min expiry, rate limiting (5 attempts / hour per identifier) - auth.js routes: POST /reset-request, /reset, /change - Session invalidation on reset (callers drop active sessions) - User enumeration prevented on reset-request (always 202) Closes devEunicee#314
