fixes two vulnerabilities as well as multiple other non security
related issues.

Reportedly, it is possible to conduct a timing attack in order to
identify valid usernames. The problem is that the timeout is shorter
when an invalid username is supplied compared to when the username is
valid.

Furthermore, a user can be redirected to a malicious site by the
redirect information in an URL.
