Discussion

FileBound On-Site Password Reset Security Bypass Vulnerability

FileBound On-Site is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability because it fails to adequately restrict access to the password-reset feature.

An attacker can exploit this issue to gain access to password-reset feature without sufficient privileges and obtain administrative privileges to the application, which may allow the attacker to compromise the application; other attacks are also possible.

FileBound On-Site versions 6.1.3 and prior are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
