Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Pterodactyl Panel versions before 1.11.8 send the user's current password as a query parameter when a user disables two-factor authentication. Web servers commonly log query parameters in plain text, so an attacker who can read those logs and learn a username or email address could potentially log in as that user. Upgrade to version 1.11.8 or later; no workarounds are available, and users who have disabled 2FA should change their passwords.
