Summary
Goobi viewer (intranda goobi-viewer-core) before 26.05 bases its password reset token on the time of the reset request, which makes the token predictable (CWE-330). An unauthenticated remote attacker who knows a target's email address can request a reset and brute-force the token. This forces an unauthorized password reset on any account.

Description from the CNA
The Goobi viewer is a web application that allows digitised material to be displayed in a web browser. Prior to version 26.05, the password reset token is predictably based on the time of the reset request. An attacker who knows the target's email address can request a reset and then brute-force the token. Exploiting this finding alone forces an unauthorized password reset on any account. This issue has been patched in version 26.05.
