When a user changes their email address, an attacker can create their own account and perform an SSO login. This action allows the attacker to take over the victim&#8217;s account, potentially giving them unauthorized access to sensitive data or control over system operations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conceptual Example Code<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"ameeb-1340266218\" class=\"ameeb-content ameeb-entity-placement\"><div class=\"poptin-embedded\" data-id=\"f6b387694f681\"><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\n<p>Below is a hypothetical example of how the vulnerability might be exploited.
