🟠 reset-password-with-code endpoint has no password complexity validation — accepts weak passwords rejected by token-based reset

Severity: major Domain: Authentication Labels: security, bug, backend, major, auth

Description

POST /api/auth/reset-password-with-code has no validation middleware (authRoutes.ts:54-56). A new password of '123456' or 'aaaaaa' is accepted. POST /api/auth/reset-password uses passwordResetValidation enforcing uppercase+lowercase+digit. Inconsistent security between the two reset paths.

Current Behavior

Code-based password reset accepts any non-empty password without complexity requirements.

Expected Behavior

POST /api/auth/reset-password-with-code should apply the same passwordResetValidation middleware as the token-based reset.
