CVE-2023-25156: Kiwitcms Kiwi Tcms

Critical severity, CVSS 9.8. EPSS: 0.9% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Kiwi TCMS, an open source test management system, does not impose rate limits in versions prior to 12.0. This makes it easier to attempt brute-force attacks against the login page. Users should upgrade to v12.0 or later to receive a patch. As a workaround, users may install and configure a rate-limiting proxy in front of Kiwi TCMS.

Affected products

• Kiwitcms Kiwi Tcms: before 12.0 (fixed in 12.0)
