An issue was discovered in Mahara before 18.10.0. It mishandled user requests that could discontinue a user's ability to maintain their own account (changing username, changing primary email address, deleting account). The correct behavior was to either prompt them for their password and/or send a warning to their primary email address.
The product contains a mechanism for users to recover or change their passwords without knowing the original password, but the mechanism is weak.
