CVE-2023-25171
Published on: Not Yet Published
Last Modified on: 02/24/2023 05:34:00 PM UTC
Certain versions of Kiwi Tcms from Kiwitcms contain the following vulnerability:
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 denial-of-service attacks against the Password reset page. An attacker could potentially send a large number of emails if they know the email addresses of users in Kiwi TCMS. Additionally that may strain SMTP resources. Users should upgrade to v12.0 or later to receive a patch. As potential workarounds, users may install and configure a rate-limiting proxy in front of Kiwi TCMS and/or configure rate limits on their email server when possible.
