How it was found
Hi Team,
I have noticed that, when user change his email through account setting, user doesn't get any notification or confirmation to change an email from xxxx to yyyyy. If user kept his/her account logged-in into PC, cafe, college systems then attacker can change his/her email to own mail and can takeover the account of victim.
Scenario :
- I changed my email1 to email2 through profile
- Sign-out the account and try to log-in using email1
- It was failed and when I used email2 its working.
Similarly user can change his/her password to takeover account.
Please let me know if any help is needed.
Thanks and regards, Kiddie..!!
