Unknown Unknown - Not Provided
Authentication Bypass in macrozheng mall Password Reset Enables Account Takeover

Publication date: 2026-02-07

Last updated on: 2026-04-07

Assigner: VulnCheck

Description
macrozheng mall version 1.0.3 and prior contains an authentication vulnerability in the mall-portal password reset workflow that allows an unauthenticated attacker to reset arbitrary user account passwords using only a victim’s telephone number. The password reset flow exposes the one-time password (OTP) directly in the API response and validates password reset requests solely by comparing the provided OTP to a value stored by telephone number, without verifying user identity or ownership of the telephone number. This enables remote account takeover of any user with a known or guessable telephone number.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in macrozheng mall version 1.0.3 and earlier. It is an authentication flaw in the password reset workflow of the mall-portal. An unauthenticated attacker can reset any user's password by using only the victim's telephone number.

The issue arises because the password reset process exposes the one-time password (OTP) directly in the API response and validates the reset request solely by comparing the provided OTP to a stored value linked to the telephone number. There is no verification of the user's identity or ownership of the telephone number.

As a result, an attacker who knows or can guess a victim's telephone number can remotely take over that user's account by resetting their password.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can lead to remote account takeover by attackers without any authentication.

  • Attackers can reset passwords of any user if they know or guess the user's telephone number.
  • Compromised accounts may lead to unauthorized access to personal or sensitive information.
  • It can result in loss of user trust and potential financial or reputational damage.
