Description
I think this hasn't been reported before, but let me know if that is incorrect.
Basically, I was trying to reset my password, but the option is not readily available in the UI. However, I
found that this feature is implemented in https://xsshunter.com/app:
```
Username
Reset Password
Return to Login Page
```
but even though I receive a password reset confirmation, visiting the URL provided only returns a `404: Not Found` error.
Any help would be appreciated.
By the way, extremely useful application. Thanks!

Start at the password-reset UI shown for https://xsshunter.com/app and trace the confirmation URL produced after submitting a username. Check the reset-link flow and its 404 response. Done means the emailed reset URL opens successfully and allows the password reset to complete.
