Account takeover via Host header reset-link poisoning
Published Jun 30, 2025 · Updated Jun 30, 2025
Information disclosure in Frappe Framework before 14.94.3 and before 15.58.0 allows remote attackers to steal password reset tokens. On self-hosted instances without a configured host name, reset_password() passes the generated path to get_url(), which trusts the request Host header when composing the emailed link. Exploitation requires a user to follow a password-reset link whose attacker-controlled host receives the embedded key, enabling the attacker to reset that account's password.
