An issue was discovered in PublicCMS V4.0.180825.

MEDIUM 5.3EPSS 1.17%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.17%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in PublicCMS V4.0.180825. For an invalid login attempt, the response length is different depending on whether the username is valid, which makes it easier to conduct brute-force attacks.
