Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PHPJabbers Fundraising Script version 1.0

Description The issue is related to user enumeration, which occurs during the password recovery process. A difference in messages could allow an attacker to determine if a user is valid or not, enabling a brute force attack with valid users. This could potentially lead to unauthorized access.

As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the password recovery feature to minimize the risk of exploitation.
