CVE-2026-77582Tinyauth: User enumeration attack by timing oracle

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects tinyauthapp tinyauth. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Tinyauth is an authentication and authorization server. Prior to 5.1.0, Tinyauth exposes a remotely observable timing difference between authentication attempts for existing and nonexistent local usernames. internal/controller/user_controller.go loginHandler and internal/middleware/context_middleware.go basicAuth return quickly after internal/service/auth_service.go reports a missing user, while an existing user causes bcrypt password verification work. Repeated measurements can therefore disclose valid usernames and support targeted credential attacks. This issue is fixed in version 5.1.0.
