CVSS v3.1 |
| Paaster is a pastebin application. Prior to version 3.3.0, Paaster's account login has no rate limiting, lockout, or CAPTCHA of any kind, and a companion endpoint openly discloses whether a username exists along with that account's password-hashing salts. Together these let an attacker enumerate real accounts and then brute-force their passwords with unlimited, unthrottled attempts. This issue has been patched in version 3.3.0. |
| The auto-ban of Progressive Robot hMailServer 6.0.0-B1 through 6.3.7 can be kept from banning an address after repeated failed logons, which allows a remote unauthenticated attacker who can connect from two or more addresses to go on guessing account passwords - over SMTP AUTH, IMAP and POP3, and over ManageSieve, CalDAV/CardDAV and the REST API where those are turned on (off by default) - without being banned. When the failed logons counted from one address reach MaxInvalidLogonAttempts (3 by default), the server clears that address's count, saves an IP range that refuses the address for AutoBanMinutes (60 by default) and drops the connection. The range is named "Auto-ban: " followed by the user name of the logon that reached the limit, and no two ranges may have the same name. The server chooses the name by checking candidates as written - the name, then the name with a number, a random suffix or a GUID added - and only then cuts it to the 100 characters the database column holds, so that with a user name of 90 characters or more every candidate is the same once cut. While one range named after such a user name stands, every later ban named after a user name with the same first 90 characters therefore fails at the database: no range is saved, the address is not refused, and, its count having already been cleared, it is given the next full set of attempts. A user name of 78 to 89 characters makes later bans fail in the same way: from the second, the third or the twelfth on, depending on its length and the database, or, from 78 to 85 characters, by chance. An attacker who has once had an address banned under such a name can in this way keep guessing passwords from any other address, ending each set of attempts with a logon under a name of that kind; each failed save is reported in the server's error log (as the database error HM5032, and from 6.2.19 also as HM6099). On SQL Server a user name holding characters outside the database's code page has the same effect at any length, because the check compared names in that code page; that save is refused by the server's own check of the name, with no database error, and is reported only from 6.2.19 (HM6099). A user name holding a NUL character, which the web services listener's HTTP Basic sign-in (off by default) carries from 6.3.3 and, on the Linux builds, IMAP LOGIN, offered as installed, from 6.3.0, makes bans fail at any length: on MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL the statements that check the name and save the range end at the character, so that every ban named after such a name fails, from the first and from a single address, and, its count having already been cleared, the address is given the next full set of attempts; on SQL Server and SQL Server Compact the name is bound only as far as the character, so that while one range under the part before it stands, every later ban named after such a name fails. On SQL Server, and on MySQL and MariaDB for an account whose local part has nine characters or more, a guess at the account can itself carry a name of that kind, since those databases find an account under its address followed by spaces (and SQL Server also under one holding characters its comparison ignores), so that not even a MaxInvalidLogonAttempts of 1, which bans each failed logon under the name it gave, avoids it there. |
| The auto-ban of Progressive Robot hMailServer 6.2.0 through 6.3.3, with a MySQL or MariaDB database, can be kept from banning an address after repeated failed logons, which allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to go on guessing account passwords from a single address without being banned. The server makes its MySQL tables in MySQL's utf8 character set, which holds no character outside the Basic Multilingual Plane, sends its statements as UTF-8 over a utf8mb4 connection and leaves the database's default strict mode in place. From 6.2.0 it decodes the user name of a SASL PLAIN logon as UTF-8, so the name can hold such a character. When the failed logons counted from one address reach MaxInvalidLogonAttempts (3 by default), the server clears that address's count, saves an IP range named "Auto-ban: " followed by the user name of the logon that reached the limit, and drops the connection. If such a character is in the part of the user name that the range's name keeps (the name is cut to 100 characters), the database refuses the range: no range is saved, the address is not refused, and, its count having already been cleared, it is given the next full set of attempts. An attacker can in this way spend all but the last attempt of each set on password guesses, and make the last under such a name. On Windows, POP3 AUTH PLAIN reaches it on a server as installed, and IMAP AUTHENTICATE PLAIN where IMAP SASL authentication is turned on (off by default); on Windows and on Linux (from 6.3.0), SMTP AUTH PLAIN reaches it where plain-text authentication is allowed (off by default), and ManageSieve and CardDAV where they are turned on (off by default). Each failed save is reported in the server's error log. A database whose strict mode has been turned off stores the character as a question mark and makes the first such ban, but refuses every later ban named after the same user name, or after one holding other such characters in their place, as a duplicate while the first stands, since the server cannot look up a name holding such a character there. |
| The web services listener of Progressive Robot hMailServer 6.3.3 through 6.3.7 does not apply the server's IP ranges to the connections it accepts, which allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to go on guessing account passwords at the listener's sign-ins after the auto-ban has banned the attacker's address. The listener is off by default (WebServicesHttpPort and WebServicesHttpsPort 0). From 6.3.3 its CardDAV, and from 6.3.4 its CalDAV and its Outlook Autodiscover answer to a request that carries credentials, sign an account in with HTTP Basic over HTTPS. A failed sign-in there counts towards the auto-ban as a failed logon on any other protocol does: when the failures counted from one address reach MaxInvalidLogonAttempts (3 within 30 minutes by default), the server writes an IP range that refuses the address for AutoBanMinutes (60 by default), and the SMTP, POP3, IMAP and ManageSieve listeners refuse it. The web services listener asked no IP range when it accepted a connection (in 6.3.3 nothing, from 6.3.4 the country policy alone), so it went on serving such an address, whether its ban had been earned there or on another protocol, and also an address that an administrator's IP range allowing nothing holds. Each failed sign-in there closed only its own connection, and the next connection was accepted, during the ban and after it. The firewall rule and command the auto-ban can drive (AutoBanFirewall and AutoBanCommand, off by default) are told only the SMTP, POP3 and IMAP ports, so that the firewall rule and the packaged hook did not close the listener's ports, and the fail2ban jail packaged for Linux (off by default) lists only the mail and ManageSieve ports. The only limit left on the guesses at one account there was the per-name lockout (AccountLockoutThreshold in hMailServer.ini, 0, off, by default), which has a separate defect fixed in the same release. The flaw is reached on the listener's HTTPS port: behind a TLS-terminating proxy the listener sees the proxy's address for every client, and a ban never named the client there. |
| Padloc 4.0.0 before 4.3.1 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the legacy retrieveMFAToken handler that never counts wrong email verification codes toward the attempt limit. Unauthenticated attackers knowing a victim's email can brute force the 6-digit code to obtain verification tokens usable in signup, login and account recovery flows. |
| Dell OpenManage Enterprise, versions prior to 4.8.0, contains an Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with adjacent network access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Launch of phishing attacks. |
| Authentication Bypass / Missing Brute-Force Protection in remote.php/webdav/ in ownCloud ownCloud server 10.16.3 allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to perform unlimited online password guessing against WebDAV accounts via repeated HTTP Basic Authentication requests to the WebDAV endpoint. |
| INFINITT ULite 5.0.2.1_BN48_20260528 and earlier protects image-share links with a low-entropy password and does not restrict repeated password attempts, allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to brute-force the password within the link validity window and gain unauthorized access to shared medical images. Fixed in ULite 5.0.2.1 BN50. |
| Vikunja before 2.7.1 contains an improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts vulnerability that allows session holders to brute-force account passwords via unthrottled re-authentication endpoints. Attackers with a stolen session can guess the password via /user/settings/totp/disable without lockout, then disable TOTP without a code for persistent account takeover. |
| IBM API Connect 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 could allow a remote attacker to perform unauthenticated brute-force attacks to obtain valid credentials due to improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts. |
| HCL AION is affected by a vulnerability where the account lockout mechanism did not sufficiently restrict repeated failed login attempts, allowing an attacker to make a large number of password guesses against a user account. This may increase the risk of account compromise through brute-force attacks, potentially resulting in unintended behavior or security impact under certain conditions. |
| The Thanh Toán Quét Mã QR Code Tự Động WordPress plugin through 2.0.1 does not properly verify the authenticity of incoming bank-transfer payment notifications on a default installation, allowing unauthenticated attackers to mark arbitrary WooCommerce orders as paid. |
| The EASY-JS-WPAPI Client HANDLE for the WordPress REST-API WordPress plugin through 2.0 does not prevent the administrator credentials it stores from being disclosed to unauthenticated users and does not correctly verify authentication, allowing unauthenticated attackers to obtain administrator credentials and gain full administrator access to the site. |

| WidzialniCMS is vulnerable to Bruteforce Protection Bypass in the login functionality. The cookie-based lockout can be bypassed by omitting the login_count and login_timeout cookies, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to perform an unlimited number of login attempts.
This issue has been fixed in version 2.5. |
| BlueprintUE Self-Hosted Edition 4.2.0 before 4.3.4 contains a login rate limit bypass vulnerability in LoginMiddleware.php that keys failed-login counters on case-sensitive usernames. Unauthenticated attackers can vary username casing against case-insensitive MySQL lookups to get extra attempts and brute-force passwords past the per-account lockout. |
| Databasus 3.7.0 through 3.61.0 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to brute-force password reset codes via POST /api/v1/users/reset-password. Attackers can request a six-digit code for a known email, then guess it without rate limiting, lockout, or invalidation to take over accounts, including administrators. |
| In server mode pgAdmin 4 locks an internal account after MAX_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS failed logins (3 by default). The limit could be bypassed, giving an unauthenticated attacker an unlimited number of password guesses against any internal account, including the administrator's, in the default configuration:
- Flask-Security registers its own views next to pgAdmin's. A login submitted to its /login view was checked and logged in without pgAdmin's failed login count or lock. Its /verify view checked a signed-in user's password without limit, its /change view changed a password without pgAdmin's change password permission or re-encrypting the user's saved server passwords, and its /reset views sent and applied password resets for accounts that are not internal or are locked.
- The internal account was looked up by its exact username, while the login form matches the email ignoring case, so a login with the username typed in another case was neither counted nor checked for the lock.
- With LDAP or webserver authentication also configured, a wrong internal password was never counted, and with Kerberos or webserver authentication configured a guess could be answered without being counted.
In addition, where accounts from different authentication sources share an email address, a password reset could be sent for, or applied to, an account from another source, and the About box showed the server configuration to a user whose email was that of an administrator's account.
The fix refuses submissions to Flask-Security's own views, counts every failed internal login however the username is typed and whatever other sources are configured, no longer lets a login that posts a password fall back to an authentication source that does not check it, and locks only internal authentication. Password resets and the About box act only on the user's own internal account. Desktop mode is not affected.
This issue affects pgAdmin 4: before 9.19. |
