[wp-hackers] wp 3.7

[Chris Jean]

It's due to this line that was added to wp-login.php in 3.7:

if ( isset($_POST['testcookie']) && empty($_COOKIE[TEST_COOKIE]) )

This didn't exist before.

Since the cookie is set on page load, triggering this issue would seem 
to require clearing cookies just before logging in, having cookies 
disabled until already on the page, or some other type of process on the 
browser that is blocking cookies.

Luke, do you have anything on your browser that blocks, disables, or 
otherwise modifies cookies?
