20th percentile - higher than 20% of all known CVEs

Summary

The reset_password.html file parses query string parameters and uses the 'url' parameter as a redirection target (window.location = url) after password reset, optionally delayed by a 'delay' parameter. No validation or allowlisting is performed on url, enabling an attacker to redirect users to an arbitrary external site after completion of the password-reset workflow.

Risk Assessment

An attacker could exploit this for phishing, directing users to fake login pages after password reset, potentially leading to credential theft or malware installation.

Recommendation

Add validation of the 'url' parameter and allow only trusted, internal URLs (allowlist). Also consider using server-side safe redirects instead of client-side.
