+ <p>A specially crafted URL could be requested that would allow an
+ attacker to bypass a security check to verify a user requested a
+ password reset. As a result, the first account without a key in the
+ database (usually the admin account) would have its password reset and
+ a new password would be emailed to the account owner.</p>
