CVE-2026-35098

MediumCVSS 6.9
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

KTM System e-BOK does not implement any limit or timeout on consecutive login attempts, allowing an attacker to perform unlimited authentication requests. This lack of rate-limiting enables efficient brute-force attacks against user accounts. When combined with vulnerability CVE-2026-35097, where passwords are restricted to a six-digit numeric format, this becomes a critical issue, as such passwords can be brute-forced in a relatively short time.

Risk Assessment

The organization is at risk of user account takeover through brute-force attacks, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive data and systems. The absence of login attempt limits significantly increases the likelihood of a successful attack, especially with weak numeric passwords.

Recommendation

Apply the patch published in June 2026 immediately. Additionally, implement rate-limiting mechanisms and enforce stronger password policies beyond simple numeric formats.

KTM System e-BOK does not implement any limit or timeout on consecutive login attempts, allowing an attacker to perform unlimited authentication requests. This lack of rate‑limiting enables efficient brute‑force attacks against user accounts. When combined with vulnerability CVE-2026-35097, where passwords are restricted to a six‑digit numeric format, this becomes a critical issue, as such passwords can be brute‑forced in a relatively short time. This issue was fixed in the patch published in June 2026.
