Summary
The flaw in Kiteworks Core allows unauthenticated attackers to reset a user's password by exploiting a parameter validation issue, potentially gaining full access to the account, including administrative privileges.
Exploitability
Exploitation is relatively straightforward for attackers who know the user's email address, as no additional access to the reset link is required.
Blast radius
If exploited, the impact could be severe, as it allows unauthorized access to potentially administrative accounts, leading to data breaches or system compromise.

NVD description

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.
