The error logged for this was:

[9005c35bbc1b3d296bacb04f] /w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&returnto=Main+Page MWException from line 4013 of /srv/mediawiki/php-1.29.0-wmf.15/includes/user/User.php: CAS update failed on user_touched for user ID '7898' (read from replica); the version of the user to be saved is older than the current version.

These are transient errors that show up from time to time. I don't think there is any major regression in the auth system currently or we would have a lot more bug reports.

Alright thanks for at least looking into it for me @bd808

Maybe it just needs some updating @Reedy?
