This is route in web.php

Route::post('/changePassword','HomeController@changePassword')->name('changePassword');

Controller Method

public function changePassword(Request $request){

        if (!(Hash::check($request->get('current-password'), Auth::user()->password))) {
            // The passwords matches
            return redirect()->back()->with("error","Your current password does not matches with the password you provided. Please try again.");
        }

        if(strcmp($request->get('current-password'), $request->get('new-password')) == 0){
            //Current password and new password are same
            return redirect()->back()->with("error","New Password cannot be same as your current password. Please choose a different password.");
        }

        $validatedData = $request->validate([
            'current-password' => 'required',
            'new-password' => 'required|string|min:6|confirmed',
        ]);

        //Change Password
        $user = Auth::user();
        $user->password = bcrypt($request->get('new-password'));
        $user->save();

        return redirect()->back()->with("success","Password changed successfully !");

Laravel 6 Check Old Password and Updating a New Password

public function updatePassword(Request $request)
    {
        $this->validate($request, [
            'old_password'     => 'required',
            'new_password'     => 'required|min:6',
            'confirm_password' => 'required|same:new_password',
        ]);

        $data = $request->all();

        if(!\Hash::check($data['old_password'], auth()->user()->password)){

             return back()->with('error','You have entered wrong password');

        }else{

           here you will write password update code

        }
    }

This is how I do this with Laravel 5.8:

View

Confirm password must be something like this:

{!! Form::password('password_confirmation', ['class' => 'form-control'']) !!}

Because Laravel provides out the box a field confirmed rule.

Create a form request and put this inside the rules part:

use App\Rules\IsCurrentPassword;

/**
 * Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
 *
 * @return array
 */
public function rules()
{
    return [
        'old_password' => ['required', new IsCurrentPassword],
        'password' => 'required|string|min:6|confirmed',
    ];
}

Let's use artisan to generate a rule that verifies if old_password is the real current password:

php artisan make:rule IsCurrentPassword

And put this inside the passes method of rule generated:

/**
 * Determine if the validation rule passes.
 *
 * @param  string  $attribute
 * @param  mixed  $value
 * @return bool
 */
public function passes($attribute, $value)
{
    $current_password = auth()->user()->password;
    return Hash::check($value, $current_password);
}

Do not forget to import Hash:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Hash;

Controller

All you need to do in your controller is this:

auth()->user()->update([
    'password' => Hash::make($request->password)
]);

And tada :) Hope I help.


This is change password form

<form id="form-change-password" role="form" method="POST" action="{{ url('/user/credentials') }}" novalidate class="form-horizontal">
  <div class="col-md-9">             
    <label for="current-password" class="col-sm-4 control-label">Current Password</label>
    <div class="col-sm-8">
      <div class="form-group">
        <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}"> 
        <input type="password" class="form-control" id="current-password" name="current-password" placeholder="Password">
      </div>
    </div>
    <label for="password" class="col-sm-4 control-label">New Password</label>
    <div class="col-sm-8">
      <div class="form-group">
        <input type="password" class="form-control" id="password" name="password" placeholder="Password">
      </div>
    </div>
    <label for="password_confirmation" class="col-sm-4 control-label">Re-enter Password</label>
    <div class="col-sm-8">
      <div class="form-group">
        <input type="password" class="form-control" id="password_confirmation" name="password_confirmation" placeholder="Re-enter Password">
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="form-group">
    <div class="col-sm-offset-5 col-sm-6">
      <button type="submit" class="btn btn-danger">Submit</button>
    </div>
  </div>
</form>

Create rules

public function admin_credential_rules(array $data)
{
  $messages = [
    'current-password.required' => 'Please enter current password',
    'password.required' => 'Please enter password',
  ];
  
  $validator = Validator::make($data, [
    'current-password' => 'required',
    'password' => 'required',
    'password_confirmation' => 'required|same:password',     
  ], $messages);

  return $validator;
}  

User controller method to changes password

use Validator;

public function postCredentials(Request $request)
{
  if(Auth::Check())
  {
    $request_data = $request->All();
    $validator = $this->admin_credential_rules($request_data);
    if($validator->fails())
    {
      return response()->json(array('error' => $validator->getMessageBag()->toArray()), 400);
    }
    else
    {  
      $current_password = Auth::User()->password;           
      if(Hash::check($request_data['current-password'], $current_password))
      {           
        $user_id = Auth::User()->id;                       
        $obj_user = User::find($user_id);
        $obj_user->password = Hash::make($request_data['password']);
        $obj_user->save(); 
        return "ok";
      }
      else
      {           
        $error = array('current-password' => 'Please enter correct current password');
        return response()->json(array('error' => $error), 400);   
      }
    }        
  }
  else
  {
    return redirect()->to('/');
  }    
}
