CVE-2024-11717 affects CTFd versions up to 3.7.4, where account activation and password reset tokens are interchangeable, not single-use, and contain base64 encoded user emails. An on-path attacker can intercept these tokens, which are sent as GET parameters, and reuse them to reset a user's password and take over their account before the token expires. This vulnerability has a CVSS score of 6.3 (Medium) due to its network attack vector and low attack complexity, potentially leading to account compromise. There is currently no public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) or evidence of active exploitation, and it has received minimal community discussion or media coverage.
