Am I affected?

Description

Because of unauthenticated password changes in ForLogic Qualiex v1 and v3, customer and admin permissions and data can be accessed via a simple request. NOTE: as of 2025-10-14, the Supplier's perspective is that this is "corrected in all maintained versions. Password reset requests are validated against registered user emails and require a valid, short-lived token."
