How it was found

Application should not allow the user to set the last 3-5 password in terms of secure design principles. It should give a warning or provide such avoidance while user is using repetitive usage of passwords.

Repro:

  1. Try to set same old password via Password Reset link.

Fix: Application should avoid user to set last history of passwords to enforce the security.

Let me know if any further info is required.
