Description
The password reset feature generates different error messages depending on whether a user exists or not, allowing remote attackers to determine valid usernames.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 3.2, update to version 3.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider modifying the password reset feature to return generic error messages, preventing attackers from determining valid usernames.
