| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Pimcore versions prior to 6.2.2
Description
The issue allows attackers to brute-force valid usernames by utilizing the 'forgot password' functionality. This is possible because the functionality returns distinct messages for invalid passwords and non-existing users.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 6.2.2, update to version 6.2.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'forgot password' functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Fix
Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts
