FKIE_CVE-2026-108737

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-10-11 13:17 - Updated: 2026-10-11 13:17
Severity
6.8 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
Summary
Traccar through 6.16.0 contains a weak password recovery vulnerability that allows attackers to reuse password reset tokens as session credentials because TokenManager does not bind tokens to a purpose. Attackers holding a leaked reset link can obtain a full session via /api/session or change passwords via /api/password/update, retaining access for seven days even after the victim resets their password.
