GHSA-QCGX-7P5F-HXVR
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-03-29 22:11 – Updated: 2022-03-29 22:11Description
It was possible to confirm a single character of a user's password hash (just the hash, not the password) using a specially crafted regular expression filter in the users endpoint of the REST API. Many requests could eventually uncover the entire hash.
The hash would not be in the response, however the presence or absence of a result would confirm if the character was in the right position. It would take a long time since the API has throttling enabled by default.
Additionally, the REST API would need to be enabled, as well as the users endpoint. Both of which are disabled by default.
Resolution
Filtering by password or password hash has been disabled.
Credits
We would like to thank Thibaud Kehler for reporting the issue.

GHSA-QHXG-623C-CFJM
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-05 16:03 – Updated: 2026-07-20 21:17Summary
The shared-view password check fell back to strict-equality (===) comparison for
legacy plaintext passwords, leaking the password's length and per-character prefix
through response timing.
Details
The bcrypt branch (hashes starting with $2a$/$2b$) was unaffected. The legacy
fallback in View.ts now uses crypto.timingSafeEqual and a same-length dummy
compare on the length-mismatch path, so total comparison time is approximately
length-independent. The EE dashboard model's verifyPassword is patched the same way.
Impact
A network-positioned attacker could mount a timing oracle against shared views whose passwords predated the bcrypt migration. Exploitation requires the ability to time shared-view authentication responses but no prior authentication.

Mitigation MIT-46
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
- Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
- Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
Mitigation MIT-39
- Ensure that error messages only contain minimal details that are useful to the intended audience and no one else. The messages need to strike the balance between being too cryptic (which can confuse users) or being too detailed (which may reveal more than intended). The messages should not reveal the methods that were used to determine the error. Attackers can use detailed information to refine or optimize their original attack, thereby increasing their chances of success.
- If errors must be captured in some detail, record them in log messages, but consider what could occur if the log messages can be viewed by attackers. Highly sensitive information such as passwords should never be saved to log files.
- Avoid inconsistent messaging that might accidentally tip off an attacker about internal state, such as whether a user account exists or not.
CAPEC-189: Black Box Reverse Engineering
An adversary discovers the structure, function, and composition of a type of computer software through black box analysis techniques. 'Black Box' methods involve interacting with the software indirectly, in the absence of direct access to the executable object. Such analysis typically involves interacting with the software at the boundaries of where the software interfaces with a larger execution environment, such as input-output vectors, libraries, or APIs. Black Box Reverse Engineering also refers to gathering physical side effects of a hardware device, such as electromagnetic radiation or sounds.
