Unauthenticated account takeover via password recovery
Published May 27, 2026 · Updated May 27, 2026
Authentication bypass in Iqonic Design KiviCare 4.3.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to take over accounts through password recovery. Patchstack and the CNA record do not disclose which password-recovery endpoint or validation error permits the bypass. No authentication or user interaction is required; successful exploitation grants access to a targeted account and its protected clinic data.
