CVE-2026-58272Public exploitNetwork attack vectorHinoki check available

Account enumeration via skipped bcrypt comparison

Published Sep 21, 2026 · Updated Sep 23, 2026

Observable timing discrepancy in Sync-in Server before 2.4.1 allows remote attackers to enumerate valid accounts via login timing. The MySQL validateUser() path returns when findUser() finds no login or email, skipping comparePassword(), while existing accounts incur a bcrypt comparison. The unauthenticated POST /api/auth/login endpoint therefore reveals account validity through response latency, enabling focused credential attacks and phishing.
