Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Weak Password Recovery Mechanism for Forgotten Password through the login_link process. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to user accounts by reusing a previously issued password reset link after the password has been changed. This is possible because the link remains valid for multiple uses within a set time window and is not invalidated upon password change.
