Network-reachable and unauthenticated (AV:N/PR:N), but timing side-channels need many aggregated measurements against network noise (AC:H); only username existence leaks, so C:L with I:N/A:N.

Gophish through 0.12.1 contains a timing discrepancy vulnerability in AdminServer.Login that allows unauthenticated attackers to enumerate valid usernames by measuring login response times. Attackers can submit candidate usernames to POST /login and detect bcrypt comparison delays for existing accounts, narrowing targets for password guessing or credential stuffing.
AnalysisAI
Username enumeration in Gophish through 0.12.1 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to distinguish valid administrator accounts from invalid ones by measuring response-time differences in the login handler, which performs a bcrypt comparison for existing users but short-circuits for unknown ones. Rated low-to-moderate priority (CVSS 4.0 6.3; assessed CVSS 3.1 AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N with low confidentiality impact), the flaw yields only a list of valid usernames and does not authenticate an attacker, disclose passwords, or modify data. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires that the Gophish admin web interface (POST /login) be network-reachable by the attacker - in the recommended internal/VPN-only deployment this condition is not met, sharply limiting real exposure. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine but low-to-moderate priority issue, not a high-impact emergency. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch is identified at time of analysis, so remediation centers on compensating controls. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
