Technical details

The forgotten.php endpoint generates password reset tokens using substr(md5(mt_rand()), 0, 10), which produces a weak 10-character hex string that can be efficiently brute-forced or predicted due to weak random number generation (mt_rand is not cryptographically secure). The vulnerability requires knowledge of the target email address but has no rate limiting or token expiration, allowing unauthenticated attackers to enumerate valid reset codes. A patch is available in newer versions.
