DescriptionCVE.org

Vikunja versions before 2.6.0 fail to apply rate limiting to /api/v2 public authentication endpoints including login, register, password-reset, and OAuth token routes. Remote unauthenticated attackers can perform unbounded credential guessing, account enumeration, and password-reset flooding attacks without throttling restrictions.

AnalysisAI

Vikunja versions before 2.6.0 ship authentication endpoints under /api/v2 (login, register, password-reset, and OAuth token issuance) with no rate limiting, so remote unauthenticated attackers can hammer them with unbounded requests to guess credentials, enumerate accounts, and flood mailboxes with password-reset messages. The exposure is a confidentiality problem — the supplied CVSS 4.0 vector rates high impact to data confidentiality but none to integrity or availability — and a vendor patch exists in 2.6.0. …
