Hi,
we got requirement to have long timeout e.g. 2 - 3 days on links for e-mail verification
during registration for better UX.
It’s possible to do it via setting "Login action timeout” to 3 days. This setting
also change the timeout of link for forgot password AFAIK.
I’m thinking about security implications.
Can somebody steal such link in e-mail somehow and then steal identity because of doing
“forgot password” on target account? For example by listening SMTP protocol
communication?
Thanks,
