mehalyna commented 3 months ago

  1. Implement Password Recovery API Endpoint:

    • Develop an API endpoint to handle password recovery requests.
    • Ensure the endpoint securely accepts and validates the user's email address.

  2. Email Service Integration:

    • Integrate an email service provider into the application.
    • Set up a system to send password recovery emails with secure links or codes.

  3. Password Reset Functionality:

    • Implement the functionality for users to reset their passwords using the link or code sent to their email.
    • Include form validation for the new password (e.g., minimum length, complexity).

  4. Security Measures for Password Reset:

    • Ensure the password reset link or code is time-sensitive and expires after a certain period.
    • Implement measures to prevent brute force attacks on the password reset endpoint.

  5. User Feedback and Error Handling:

    • Create a user-friendly interface for the password recovery process.
    • Provide clear feedback for successful password reset or errors (e.g., invalid link/code, unrecognized email).

  6. Testing and Validation:

    • Thoroughly test the password recovery process to ensure its reliability and security.
    • Include unit and integration tests for the password recovery feature.
