mod_invites_register_api: Use set_password() for password resets Previously the code relied on the (weird) behaviour of create_user(), which would update the password for a user account if it already existed. This has several issues, and we plan to deprecate this behaviour of create_user(). The larger issue is that this route does not trigger the user-password-changed event, which can be a security problem. For example, it did not disconnect existing user sessions (this occurs in mod_c2s in response to the event). Switching to set_password() is the right thing to do.

local hostname = module:get_option_string("sasl_hostname", module.host);

module:hook("stream-features", function(event)
	local features = event.features;
	local mechs = features:get_child("mechanisms", "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-sasl");
	if mechs then
		mechs:tag("hostname", { xmlns = "urn:xmpp:domain-based-name:1" })
			:text(hostname):up();
	end
end);
