Summary
Kanboard is project management software that focuses on the Kanban methodology. Prior to version 1.2.46, Kanboard is vulnerable to username enumeration and IP spoofing-based brute-force protection bypass. By analyzing login behavior and abusing trusted HTTP headers, an attacker can determine valid usernames and circumvent rate-limiting or blocking mechanisms. Any organization running a publicly accessible Kanboard instance is affected, especially if relying on IP-based protections like Fail2Ban or CAPTCHA for login rate-limiting. Attackers with access to the login page can exploit this flaw to enumerate valid usernames and bypass IP-based blocking mechanisms, putting all user accounts at higher risk of brute-force or credential stuffing attacks. Version 1.2.46 contains a patch for the issue.

      "value": "Kanboard es un software de gesti\u00f3n de proyectos centrado en la metodolog\u00eda Kanban. Antes de la versi\u00f3n 1.2.46, Kanboard era vulnerable a la enumeraci\u00f3n de nombres de usuario y a la elusi\u00f3n de la protecci\u00f3n por fuerza bruta basada en suplantaci\u00f3n de IP. Al analizar el comportamiento de inicio de sesi\u00f3n y abusar de los encabezados HTTP de confianza, un atacante puede determinar nombres de usuario v\u00e1lidos y eludir los mecanismos de limitaci\u00f3n o bloqueo. Cualquier organizaci\u00f3n que ejecute una instancia de Kanboard de acceso p\u00fablico se ve afectada, especialmente si utiliza protecciones basadas en IP como Fail2Ban o CAPTCHA para la limitaci\u00f3n de la tasa de inicio de sesi\u00f3n. Los atacantes con acceso a la p\u00e1gina de inicio de sesi\u00f3n pueden explotar esta vulnerabilidad para enumerar nombres de usuario v\u00e1lidos y eludir los mecanismos de bloqueo basados en IP, lo que aumenta el riesgo de ataques de fuerza bruta o robo de credenciales. La versi\u00f3n 1.2.46 incluye un parche para solucionar este problema."
