compelling phishing case for removing another user's account. The front-end of this page doesn't allow
changing the form details, an attacker can utilize a proxy to intercept this request and submit other
data. Upon submitting this form, an email is sent to the administrator informing them that this user wants

issue has been patched in version 3.2.5. (CVE-2024-22202)
