Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization in the reset_user_password and gym_permissions_user_edit function when both the attacker and victim have gym=None. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to another user's account, obtain their new plaintext password, and permanently lock them out by exploiting improper authorization checks that fail to restrict password resets between unaffiliated users.
