Account password reset via forged authenticated request
Published Aug 30, 2021 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Cross-site request forgery in Indexhibit 2.1.5 allows remote authenticated users to reset arbitrary account passwords. The public report demonstrates the password-reset operation against a chosen username and numeric account ID, but does not identify the handler or missing request-validation check in text. Exploitation requires an authenticated attacker and victim interaction; the returned password permits unauthorized use of the targeted account.
