Checking a password with Zend_Auth

How i can check a password, when i am already authorized on my page? I need write an action, where the user will change a password, and i must check a current his password. When I using a following code:

$this->authAdapter->setIdentity($identity);
    $this->authAdapter->setCredential($credential);
    if(Zend_Auth::getInstance()->authenticate($this->authAdapter)){...}

then my current session disappears... How i can check password belonging to logged user?

That's the authenticate method of the Zend_Auth instance is doing two things: checks the credentials are valid and store them. If you only want to check if the credentials are valid, directly call the adapter authenticate method:

$this->authAdapter->authenticate();
