XOOPS Profiles Activation Security Bypass Vulnerability
http://www.xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=319132

The problem is that any user not activated may request and receive their activation code via email by using the activation resend function. For those sites that require administrative approval, this is a bypass of the approval process and the administrator isn't even notified it occurred.
