It's actually a really good question. What you're explaining is called a collision, by creating the same hash with different numbers you can succesfully login.

This why some standard hashing function become deprecated and are replaced when someone finds a collision. MD5, which was used a lot to hash passwords or files, is considered insecure because of all the collisions people could find.

You're right ! I didn't think about status page tools... It might be overkill for my setup but I will definitely look into it. Thank you.

Didn't know grafana provided this kind of feature. I don't think i'm going to use it but it's really good to know. Thanks !
