How it was found

Hi Team,

Summary:

Registration is checking the password creation if the password is insecure , but the password reset page was not doing the same validation, so when i input an insecure password using the password reset, the validation on the password creation can be bypass because the password reset was not doing the same validation.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Try to create/signup an account here: https://infogram.com/signup with password 1234567890 and the error message will appear: Insecure password.
  2. Now lets bypass it, assuming i already created an account, now go to forgot password: https://infogram.com/forgot and enter you email.
  3. The password reset link will send, click the link and it will redirect to password reset page.
  4. On password reset, enter 1234567890 as your new password.
  5. Password accepted! , insecure password validation has been bypassed.

Let me know if you need more information.

Regards Japz
