# Reset/Forgoten Password Bypass
|
|
|
|
## HTTP Headers
|
|
|
|
Sometimes in order to reset a password you contact an api endpoint and **send the email you want to reset the password**, like in the following example:
|
|
|
|
![](.gitbook/assets/1_6qc-agcjyzwmf8rgnvr_eg.png)
|
|
|
|
The back-end may take the information present in the **Host header** and use it for the link where the token to reset the password is going to be sent.
|
|
For example, in this case if could send the reset password email to _something@gmail.com_ and set the token link to _https://bing.com/resetpasswd?token=12348rhfblrihvkurewfwu23_

In other occasions you can manage to obtain the **same** **results** modifying the domain used in the **Referer header like in** [**here**](https://medium.com/bugbountywriteup/fun-with-header-and-forget-password-without-that-nasty-twist-cbf45e5cc8db)**.**
