A bug bounty writeup demonstrating an account takeover vulnerability combining IDOR and weak encryption in a password reset function. The attacker decrypted Zlib-compressed tokens, discovered an Adler-32 checksum constraint, located a Transaction_Token endpoint via directory fuzzing, and automated exploitation to forge valid password reset links for arbitrary accounts.

Symantec Messaging Gateway versions ≤10.6.5 contain an authentication bypass in the password reset feature due to encryption of password reset tokens using a hardcoded static key with weak PBEWithMD5AndDES cipher. An attacker can craft a valid administrator session by encrypting the string 'admin:' and passing it as an authorization parameter.
