3DescriptionGitHub Advisory
CI4MS is a CodeIgniter 4-based CMS skeleton that delivers a production-ready, modular architecture with RBAC authorization and theme support. Prior to version 0.28.5.0, the authentication implementation in CI4MS is vulnerable to email enumeration. An unauthenticated attacker can determine whether an email address is registered in the system by analyzing the application's response during the password reset process. This issue has been patched in version 0.28.5.0.
AnalysisAI
CI4MS prior to version 0.28.5.0 contains an email enumeration vulnerability in its password reset functionality that allows unauthenticated attackers to determine whether specific email addresses are registered in the system. An attacker can exploit this information disclosure by analyzing response patterns during the authentication process to build a list of valid user accounts. A patch is available in version 0.28.5.0 and later.
