Description

The password reset functionality in ownCloud Server before 8.1.11, 8.2.x before 8.2.9, 9.0.x before 9.0.7, and 9.1.x before 9.1.3 sends different error messages depending on whether the username is valid, which allows remote attackers to enumerate user names via a large number of password reset attempts.
