I have the same issue on GL-B1300 with 3.212 firmware…
I’m unable to login to Luci web interface, nor SSH.
Message:

Invalid username and/or password! Please try again.
I tried reinstalling Luci as suggested:

I don’t have this issue on my other router GL-AR750 (also 3.212 firmware), and both Luci web interface, and SSH login work, but versions are slightly different there…
Powered by LuCI openwrt-19.07 branch (git-21.189.23240-7b931da) / OpenWrt 19.07.8 r11364-ef56c85848
Ok, I just changed admin password to different one, and back to one that didn’t work before, and both login to Luce, and SSH work now. So it might be something with update?
I'm having the same problem. I upgraded to: 4.3.18
And now I can't login to Luci. Tried changing the password in the GUI interface, twice, and it doesn't help. One thing of note is that if I put in (purposefully) an incorrect password, I get the error message, "Invalid username and/or password! Please try again.". If I put in the correct password, it just refreshes the login page, with no message.
