NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cockpit-system package and not the cockpit-system package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

Cockpit CMS 2.14.1 contains an observable timing discrepancy vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to enumerate accounts due to an incomplete timing fix in /auth/check. Attackers can post login attempts and measure response times, since existing accounts incur two bcrypt operations versus one, revealing valid usernames and email addresses.
