Update : I tried to log in again. Again, code sent to my recovery email, and I keyed in the number. This time, the message changed : "We can’t sign you in at the moment. Please try again in a while"

So this is probably a yahoo issue not an issue with my password. Sadly, chat, support centre and calls could not help solve the issue. I guess I'll have to wait and try to log in again to see if I can finally log in.
