phpBB versions before 3.3.16 have a vulnerability in their password recovery mechanism due to Host Header Injection. This flaw allows an attacker who can manipulate the HTTP Host header to poison password reset links sent via email. The vulnerability arises when the force_server_vars setting is disabled, causing the server to use the Host header to generate reset URLs. Exploiting this can lead to password reset emails containing links to attacker-controlled domains, potentially enabling account takeover.
blueprintUE is a tool to help Unreal Engine developers. Prior to 4.2.0, when a password reset is initiated, a 128-character CSPRNG token is generated and stored alongside a password_reset_at timestamp. However, the token redemption function findUserIDFromEmailAndToken() queries only for a matching email + password_reset token pair — it does not check whether the password_reset_at timestamp has elapsed any maximum window. A generated reset token is valid indefinitely until it is explicitly consumed or overwritten by a subsequent reset request. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.2.0.
OpenAEV is an open source platform allowing organizations to plan, schedule and conduct cyber adversary simulation campaign and tests. Starting in version 1.0.0 and prior to version 2.0.13, OpenAEV's password reset implementation contains multiple security weaknesses that together allow reliable account takeover. The primary issue is that password reset tokens do not expire. Once a token is generated, it remains valid indefinitely, even if significant time has passed or if newer tokens are issued for the same account. This allows an attacker to accumulate valid password reset tokens over time and reuse them at any point in the future to reset a victim’s password. A secondary weakness is that password reset tokens are only 8 digits long. While an 8-digit numeric token provides 100,000,000 possible combinations (which is secure enough), the ability to generate large numbers of valid tokens drastically reduces the required number of attempts to guess a valid password reset token. For example, if an attacker generates 2,000 valid tokens, the brute-force effort is reduced to approximately 50,000 attempts, which is a trivially achievable number of requests for an automated attack. (100 requests per second can mathematically find a valid password reset token in 500 seconds.) By combining these flaws, an attacker can mass-generate valid password reset tokens and then brute-force them efficiently until a match is found, allowing the attacker to reset the victim’s password to a value of their choosing. The original password is not required, and the attack can be performed entirely without authentication. This vulnerability enables full account takeover that leads to platform compromise. An unauthenticated remote attacker can reset the password of any registered user account and gain complete access without authentication. Because user email addresses are exposed to other users by design, a single guessed or observed email address is sufficient to compromise even administrator accounts with non-guessable email addresses. This design flaw results in a reliable and scalable account takeover vulnerability that affects any registered user account in the system. Note: The vulnerability does not require OpenAEV to have the email service configured. The exploit does not depend on the target email address to be a real email address. It just needs to be registered to OpenAEV. Successful exploitation allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to access sensitive data (such as the Findings section of a simulation), modify payloads executed by deployed agents to compromise all hosts where agents are installed (therefore the Scope is changed). Users should upgrade to version 2.0.13 to receive a fix.
Dell Client Platform BIOS contains a Weak Password Recovery Mechanism vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with physical access to the system could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to unauthorized access.
Chamilo LMS is a learning management system. Prior to 1.11.38 and 2.0.0-RC.3, the default password reset mechanism generates tokens using sha1($email) with no random component, no expiration, and no rate limiting. An attacker who knows a user's email can compute the reset token and change the victim's password without authentication. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.11.38 and 2.0.0-RC.3.
Payload is a free and open source headless content management system. Prior to version 3.79.1 in @payloadcms/graphql and payload, a vulnerability in the password recovery flow could allow an unauthenticated attacker to perform actions on behalf of a user who initiates a password reset. This issue has been patched in version 3.79.1 for @payloadcms/graphql and payload.
The Membership Plugin – Restrict Content plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unvalidated Redirect in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.24. This is due to insufficient validation on the redirect url supplied via the 'rcp_redirect' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to redirect users with the password reset email to potentially malicious sites if they can successfully trick them into performing an action.
CVE-2026-32865 is a critical vulnerability in OPEXUS eComplaint and eCASE versions before 10.1.0.0, where the secret verification code is exposed in the HTTP response during password reset requests. An attacker knowing a user's email can reset passwords and security questions without answering existing security questions. This vulnerability allows unauthorized actors to take over user accounts without authentication or user interaction. The CVSS 4.0 score of 9.2 reflects the high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild.
CVE-2026-32103 is an authorization bypass vulnerability in StudioCMS versions prior to 0.4.3. It affects the POST /studiocms_api/dashboard/create-reset-link endpoint, allowing any authenticated admin user to generate password reset tokens for any other user, including the highest-privileged owner account. The vulnerability arises because the system verifies admin status but does not enforce role hierarchy or validate that the target userId matches the caller's identity. By combining this with the password reset endpoint, an attacker with admin privileges can fully take over the owner account. This flaw has a CVSS score of 6.8 (medium severity) and does not require user interaction. The vulnerability is fixed in version 0.4.
Internet Routing Registry daemon version 4 is an IRR database server, processing IRR objects in the RPSL format. From version 4.4.0 to before version 4.4.5 and from version 4.5.0 to before version 4.5.1, an attacker can manipulate the HTTP Host header on a password reset or account creation request. The confirmation link in the resulting email can then point to an attacker-controlled domain. Opening the link in the email is sufficient to pass the token to the attacker, who can then use it on the real IRRD instance to take over the account. A compromised account can then be used to modify RPSL objects maintained by the account's mntners and perform other account actions. If the user had two-factor authentication configured, which is required for users with override access, an attacker is not able to log in, even after successfully resetting the password. This issue has been patched in versions 4.4.5 and 4.5.1.
Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Versions prior to 2.1.0 have a business logic vulnerability exists in the password reset mechanism of vikunja/api that allows password reset tokens to be reused indefinitely. Due to a failure to invalidate tokens upon use and a critical logic bug in the token cleanup cron job, reset tokens remain valid forever. This allows an attacker who intercepts a single reset token (via logs, browser history, or phishing) to perform a complete, persistent account takeover at any point in the future, bypassing standard authentication controls. Version 2.1.0 contains a patch for the issue.
EverShop is a TypeScript-first eCommerce platform. Versions prior to 2.1.1 have a vulnerability in the "Forgot Password" functionality. When specifying a target email address, the API response returns the password reset token. This allows an attacker to take over the associated account. Version 2.1.1 fixes the issue.
Statmatic is a Laravel and Git powered content management system (CMS). Prior to versions 6.3.3 and 5.73.10, an attacker may leverage a vulnerability in the password reset feature to capture a user's token and reset the password on their behalf. The attacker must know the email address of a valid account on the site, and the actual user must blindly click the link in their email even though they didn't request the reset. This has been fixed in 6.3.3 and 5.73.10.
Known is a social publishing platform. Prior to 1.6.3, a Critical Broken Authentication vulnerability exists in Known 1.6.2 and earlier. The application leaks the password reset token within a hidden HTML input field on the password reset page. This allows any unauthenticated attacker to retrieve the reset token for any user by simply querying the user's email, leading to full Account Takeover (ATO) without requiring access to the victim's email inbox. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.6.3.
macrozheng mall version 1.0.3 and prior contains an authentication vulnerability in the mall-portal password reset workflow that allows an unauthenticated attacker to reset arbitrary user account passwords using only a victim’s telephone number. The password reset flow exposes the one-time password (OTP) directly in the API response and validates password reset requests solely by comparing the provided OTP to a value stored by telephone number, without verifying user identity or ownership of the telephone number. This enables remote account takeover of any user with a known or guessable telephone number.

This issue affects Sufirmam: through 23012026. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
The Easy Digital Downloads plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unvalidated Redirect in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.2. This is due to insufficient validation on the redirect url supplied via the 'edd_redirect' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to redirect users with the password reset email to potentially malicious sites if they can successfully trick them into performing an action.
Emby Server is a user-installable home media server. Versions below 4.9.1.81 allow an attacker to gain full administrative access to an Emby Server (for Emby Server administration, not at the OS level). Other than network access, no specific preconditions need to be fulfilled for a server to be vulnerable. This issue is fixed in version 4.9.1.81.
