CVE-2007-5797
SQLLoginModule in Apache Geronimo 2.0 through 2.1 does not throw an exception for a nonexistent username, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a login attempt with any username not contained in the database.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.15%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
