Unauthenticated account takeover via weak password recovery
Published Dec 4, 2025 · Updated Dec 5, 2025
Weak password recovery in MAXHUB Pivot Client Application before 1.36.2 allows remote attackers to take over user accounts. CISA and MAXHUB have not published which reset step, token, or verification check performs the unsafe operation. The reset path is remotely reachable without authentication or user interaction, and successful exploitation changes account-controlled data.
