  - GLPI is a free asset and IT management software package. Starting in version 0.83 and prior to versions
    9.5.13 and 10.0.7, an authenticated user can modify emails of any user, and can therefore takeover another
    user account through the forgotten password feature. By modifying emails, the user can also receive
    sensitive data through GLPI notifications. Versions 9.5.13 and 10.0.7 contain a patch for this issue. As a
    workaround, account takeover can be prevented by deactivating all notifications related to `Forgotten
    password?` event. However, it will not prevent unauthorized modification of any user emails.
