Workarounds
There's different possible workarounds, all consisting in modifying the XWiki/ResetPassword page. - the Reset password feature can be entirely disabled by deleting the XWiki/ResetPassword page - the script in XWiki/ResetPassword can also be modified or removed: an administrator can replace it with a simple email contact to ask an administrator to reset the password.
