CVE-2026-127111: SOGo before 5.12.13 Unauthenticated Password Recovery Brute Force
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 36/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: Alinto sogo 5.12.13.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Alinto sogo 5.12.13 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
SOGo before 5.12.13 contains an improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to reset account passwords by repeatedly guessing secret-question answers via the passwordRecoveryCheck endpoint without lockout or rate limiting. Attackers can submit unlimited candidate answers to obtain a valid recovery JWT, then use it to change the account password without the old credential and log in via the connect endpoint, achieving full account takeover on accounts without TOTP enabled.
