It&#x27;s possible to update everyone&#x27;s password without them logging in. If the old storage was just MD5(password) and you want to update it to MD5(bcrypt(password)), you&#x27;re out of luck. You need the plaintext password to make that change.  If instead you change your new storage to MD5(bcrypt(MD5(password))), you can take all of the hashes currently in your database and update them at one time with MD5(bcrypt(old hash value)).
