Description

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEC NMS (All versions < V4.0 SP3). Affected products do not properly validate user authorization when processing password reset requests. This could allow an authenticated remote attacker to bypass authorization checks, leading to the ability to reset the password of any arbitrary user account.
