Manageengine · Zoho Manageengine Adselfservice Plus · CVE-2010-3272
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus versions prior to 4.5 Build 4500
**Description**
The issue concerns the security-questions implementation in ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus, where the "accounts/ValidateAnswers" endpoint is vulnerable to password reset attacks. Remote attackers can exploit this by modifying the `Hide Captcha` or `quesList` parameter in a `validateAll` action, allowing them to reset user passwords and gain access to arbitrary user accounts.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 4.5 Build 4500, update to version 4.5 Build 4500 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "accounts/ValidateAnswers" endpoint or disabling the security-questions feature until a patch is applied. Avoid using the `Hide Captcha` or `quesList` parameter in the affected endpoint until the issue is resolved.
