Hi, The following vulnerability was published for kanboard. CVE-2025-52576[0]: | 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. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
