How to fix?

Upgrade librenms/librenms to version 23.11.0 or higher.

Overview

librenms/librenms is a fully featured network monitoring system that provides a wealth of features and device support.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling due to the lack of rate limiting security feature at GET request or backend validation. An attacker can bruteforce user accounts by using GET request for authentication. This is only exploitable if the application is using two login methods and one of them is using GET request for authentication.
