Francesco Chicchiriccò commented on SYNCOPE-1974:
-------------------------------------------------
I don't think this issue is required: the password reset process requires
anonymous authentication in place, hence in order to enumerate, an attacker
would first to obtain the anonymous credentials.
> Harden password reset errors against user enumeration
