What this means

phpMyFAQ before 4.1.11 and 4.2.0-beta.3 has an account enumeration vulnerability via the unauthenticated POST /api/webauthn/prepare-login endpoint. Unauthenticated attackers can identify existing passkey-registered accounts by comparing IDs from requests. The vulnerability is due to an observable response discrepancy.

Original source description

Read the full publisher description

phpMyFAQ 4.1.9 before 4.1.11 and 4.2.0 pre-releases before 4.2.0-beta.3 contain an account enumeration vulnerability in the unauthenticated POST /api/webauthn/prepare-login endpoint, which returns stable stored credential IDs for passkey-registered accounts but an md5(time())-derived fallback ID otherwise. Unauthenticated attackers can compare allowCredentials IDs from requests sent more than one second apart, without rate limiting, to identify existing passkey-registered accounts and their credential IDs.
