Username enumeration via distinct login status codes
Published May 10, 2026 · Updated May 10, 2026
Observable response discrepancy in the caniasERP 8.03 Login RMI Interface allows remote attackers to enumerate valid usernames through login requests. The doAction login path returns USERNOTFOUND for absent accounts but password, lock, or expiry status codes for existing accounts. No credentials or user interaction are required, and the disclosed usernames can support session guessing or subsequent attacks.
