CVE-2024-28868 · published 2 years ago

The built‑in login screen in Umbraco version 10 before 10.8.4 can let an attacker find out which user names exist in the system. Knowing valid usernames makes it easier for attackers to try password guessing or other attacks. Update to version 10.8.5 or later, or disable the native login screen and use only external authentication methods.
