CVE-2021-24527

The User Registration & User Profile – Profile Builder plugin versions before 3.4.9 contain a flaw in password reset key validation that permits any user to reset the administrator's password without authorization. The plugin fails to properly verify the reset key, enabling attackers to gain admin access while bypassing email notification mechanisms that would normally alert the administrator to the account compromise.
