Comment:

 In [changeset:"60125" 60125]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="60125"
 Application Passwords: Correct the fallback behaviour for application
 passwords that don't use a generic hash.

 Application passwords that aren't hashed using BLAKE2b should be checked
 using wp_check_password() rather than assuming they were hashed with
 phpass. This provides full back compat support for application passwords
 that were created via an overridden wp_hash_password() function that uses
 an alternative hashing algorithm.

 Reviewed by audrasjb.
 Merges [60123] into the 6.8 branch.

 Fixes #63203
