Machine-written summary

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

Concrete CMS versions below 9.5.1 (Packagist package concrete5/concrete5) are affected. The user-profile edit controller passes the entire raw POST array to UserInfo::update() without field whitelisting, which lets a registered user change their password without supplying the current password and disable the per-user IP pinning that the session validator uses to detect hijacking. Upgrade to version 9.5.1, which fixes the issue.
