    [+] References : https://packetstorm.news/files/id/210929/ & CVE-2025-4796
    
    [+] Summary : 
    
    A critical vulnerability exists in the Speaker Management component of the target 
    where an authenticated attacker can intercept the speaker update process and change any
    speaker’s registered email address without proper authorization.
    
    This flaw allows the attacker to hijack arbitrary accounts by modifying the email field
    and subsequently triggering a password reset workflow.
    
    The flaw is caused by insufficient authorization checks on the update_speaker endpoint
    combined with predictable nonce retrieval.
    
    
    [+] Affected Versions
    ----------------------------------------
    All tested versions are confirmed vulnerable.
    
    Vendor has not released a fix at the time of publishing.
    
    
    [+] Vulnerability Details
    ----------------------------------------
    The update_speaker.php endpoint accepts multiple fields including speaker_id and email
    without verifying that the user performing the action is authorized to update the target
    record.
    
    Additionally, the anti-CSRF nonce can be extracted by any authenticated user, making
    cross-user actions possible.
    
    Impact:
    - Account takeover
    - Unauthorized email modification
    - Privilege escalation
    - Full speaker profile compromise
