TitleOUSL-GROUP-BrinaryBrains School-Student-Management-System 1.0 Account Enumeration and Arbitrary Password Reset in Forgot Passw
DescriptionThe “Forgot Password” endpoint (`ajax_forgot_password`) accepts any email address via a POST request and immediately resets the associated account’s password to a new random string, with **no additional verification** such as CAPTCHA, security questions, email‑based reset tokens, or even the original password. The response also differs depending on whether the email exists, allowing an attacker to enumerate valid accounts.
