Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"57990" 57990]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="57990"
 Users: Account for returning `false` from the `authenticate` filter.

 While technically only `null`, `WP_User`, or `WP_Error` should be returned
 from the `authenticate` filter, a plugin might return boolean `false`
 instead, which would trigger the `authentication_failed` error prior to
 [57882].

 This commit aims to preserve that behavior in case `false` is returned.

 Follow-up to [57882].

 Props johnbillion.
 See #60700.
