Kiteworks Core Authentication Bypass in the Password Reset Workflow

Type: advisorySource: Official CVE List1 source record

Kiteworks Core did not correctly validate a parameter submitted to the password reset workflow. An unauthenticated attacker who knew the email address of a user with a locally stored password could potentially reset that account's password without access to the emailed reset link and then authenticate as that user, including where the account holds administrative privileges.
