Issue #391 has been updated by Joe Campbell.

File ltb-patch.tar added

Attaching a patch file that contains the following:

- A fix for this brute force attack
- A few English syntactics fixes for the interface
- A few CSS changes to the interface
- the addition of an administrative email on passwd changes
- Externalization of the ldap specific config to a sep. configuration file

I would have done these all separately (independent patches) but I failed to be 
involved in this project to start out with, just downloaded and used it to fill 
a need in my org.  I am sure it will take a while to incorporate all the stuff 
in this patch - but PLEASE ask questions if you have them.

Thanks.

Bug #391: Email based password reset allows brute force attack using wildcard *
http://tools.lsc-project.org/issues/391

Author: Joe Campbell
Status: New
Priority: High
Assigned to: 
Category: Self Service Password
Target version: self-service-password-?


The email based password reset allows an individual to test for user names to 
attack by using '*' wildcards.  i.e. you can enter jc* in the username and it 
will return an error to you that indicates if it found a user name that matches 
by starting with the letters j and c.
