Self Service Password is a PHP application that allows users to change
their password in an LDAP directory.
It is very useful to get back an account with waiting an action from an
administration especially in Active Directory environment

The password reset feature is prone to an HTTP Host header vulnerability
allowing an attacker to tamper the password-reset mail sent to his victim
allowing him to potentially steal his victim's valid reset token. The
attacker can then use it to perform account takeover


*Step to reproduce*

1. Request a password reset request targeting your victim and setting in
the request HTTP Host header the value of a server under your control

POST /?action=sendtoken HTTP/1.1
Host: *111.111.111.111*
