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
