AI-suggested

Since the vulnerability affects versions before 4.0.2, upgrading to version 4.0.2 or later is likely recommended once official fixes are released.

Description

A vulnerability in the Login & Register Forms WordPress plugin before version 4.0.2 allows unauthenticated users to obtain registered users' email addresses, including those of administrators. This occurs because the plugin does not verify that a password reset request originates from the account owner and fails to properly redact email addresses in its response.
