Service interruption via unthrottled email generation
Published Feb 20, 2025 · Updated Nov 4, 2025
Missing rate limiting in PHPJabbers Restaurant Booking System 3.0 allows remote attackers to flood a legitimate user's email account. The Forgot Password and Email Settings actions accept repeated requests and generate email without throttling messages to the targeted address. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the bounded consequence is email-flooding service interruption without reported data access or modification.
