Serenity Startsharp

An issue was discovered in Serenity Serene (and StartSharp) before 6.7.0. Password reset links are sent by email. A link contains a token that is used to reset the password. This token remains valid even after the password reset and can be used a second time to change the password of the corresponding user. The token expires only 3 hours after issuance and is sent as a query parameter when resetting. An attacker with access to the browser history can thus use the token again to change the password in order to take over the account.

An XSS issue was discovered in Serenity Serene (and StartSharp) before 6.7.0. When users upload temporary files, some specific file endings are not allowed, but it is possible to upload .html or .htm files containing an XSS payload. The resulting link can be sent to an administrator user.

An issue was discovered in Serenity Serene (and StartSharp) before 6.7.0. When a password reset request occurs, the server response leaks the existence of users. If one tries to reset a password of a non-existent user, an error message indicates that this user does not exist.
