Descriptions
In affected versions of WordPress, a password reset link emailed to a user does not expire upon changing the user password. Access would be needed to the email account of the user by a malicious party for successful execution. This has been patched in version 5.4.1, along with all the previously affected versions via a minor release (5.3.3, 5.2.6, 5.1.5, 5.0.9, 4.9.14, 4.8.13, 4.7.17, 4.6.18, 4.5.21, 4.4.22, 4.3.23, 4.2.27, 4.1.30, 4.0.30, 3.9.31, 3.8.33, 3.7.33).
En las versiones afectadas de WordPress, un enlace de restablecimiento de contraseña enviado por correo electrónico a un usuario no caduca tras cambiar la contraseña del usuario. Se necesitaría el acceso a la cuenta de correo electrónico del usuario por una parte maliciosa para una ejecución con éxito. Esto ha sido corregido en la versión 5.4.1, junto con todas las versiones afectadas anteriormente por medio de una versión menor (versiones 5.3.3, 5.2.6, 5.1.5, 5.0.9, 4.9.14, 4.8.13, 4.7.17, 4.6.18, 4.5.21, 4.4.22, 4.3.23, 4.2.27, 4.1.30, 4.0.30, 3.9.31, 3.8.33, 3.7.33).
WordPress Theme Medic theme version 1.0.0 suffers from having a weak password recovery mechanism for the forgot password flow.
