Nicolas Malin commented on OFBIZ-4361:
--------------------------------------

Hello,

With all your remarks we started with Gil a merge/refactoring/breakinghead work.

Own think is oriented on :
 * KIS : Keep It Simple
 * have only one mail remind process (replace oldest)
 * try to use JWT

We create a branch on [own community 
workspace|https://labs.nereide.fr/10031/Communautaire/tree/51-implements-a-proper-way-to-reset-password-for-a-ofbiz-user-ofbiz-4361]
 if you want follow, where I currently commit by force a part on my patch and 
Denis's patch

With JWT we currentlty exchange on the possibility to extend the service engine 
to authorize a JWT token when on service definition we have a *auth="true"* 
that will be permit to less down the code modification and increase OFBiz 
capacity to offer some access on spotted service for spotted user ... thinking 
in process ...

> Currently, any user (via ecommerce "Forget Your Password") has the ability to 
> reset another users password, including "admin" without permission.  By 
> simply entering "admin" and clicking "Email Password", the following is 
> displayed.
> The following occurred:
> A new password has been created and sent to you. Please check your Email.
> This now forces the user of the ERP to change their password.  It is also 
> possible to generate a dictionary attack against ofbiz because there is no 
> capta code required.  This is serious security risk.
> This feature could be reduced to a certain sub-set of users, whose login name 
> is optionally in the format of an email address, and maybe require a capta 
> code to prevent dictionary attacks.
> For example, limit the feature to role "Customer" of type "Person" which was 
> generated via an ecommerce transaction.
