Valid for vBulletin 5.4.5 and higher.
As processors get more powerful, the time co-efficient to decode password hashes decreases. With vBulletin 5, you can increase the cost co-efficient so that the time stays the same with more powerful processors. The attached file does this for the default password hashing schema in vBulletin 5.4.5 and higher.
To install, simply upload the XML file into your /core/includes/xml folder. No other settings are needed. The next time your users log in, their passwords will be stored with the increased cost.
