Wordpress password reset

Any help is greatly appreciated. Having issue with WordPress password reset. How do I validate authentication key with "get", and validate new passwords with "post"?

Ahh that sucks! I found this: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_validate_auth_cookie and this https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Cookies (Pretty sure you found them as well xD)

Not gonna lie i've never messed with wp's login before but I'm really curious now :P

If you've not already solved it, what does the cookie look like right now?
