CVE-2025-8118
PAD CMS implements weak client-side brute-force protection by utilizing two cookies: login_count and login_timeout.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.22%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
PAD CMS implements weak client-side brute-force protection by utilizing two cookies: login_count and login_timeout. Information about attempt count or timeout is not stored on the server, which allows a malicious attacker to bypass this brute-force protection by resetting those cookies. This issue affects all 3 templates: www, bip and www+bip. This product is End-Of-Life and producent will not publish patches for this vulnerability.
