Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts, Improper Authentication vulnerability in Doruk Communication and Automation Industry and Trade Inc. Wispotter allows Password Brute Forcing, Brute Force. This issue affects Wispotter: from 1.0 before v2025.10.08.1.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Wispotter application from version 1.0 through versions before v2025.10.08.1 fails to properly restrict excessive authentication attempts, allowing attackers to conduct brute force attacks against login credentials. The authentication mechanism lacks rate limiting, account lockout, or other brute force protections.

MitigationUpdate Wispotter to version v2025.10.08.1 or later which contains the fix. Until then, implement network-level rate limiting on authentication endpoints and monitor for brute force patterns.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm Wispotter is installed
    Locate the Wispotter application by checking for its installation directory, service, or running process (e.g., ps aux | grep wispotter, or check common install paths)
    Affected if Wispotter is found running or installed on the system
  2. Identify installed version
    Check the Wispotter version using the application's about page, version command, version file, or service metadata (e.g., wispotter --version, or inspect VERSION/About files in the installation directory)
    Affected if The version is 1.0 or any version prior to v2025.10.08.1
  3. Verify authentication endpoint configuration
    Examine Wispotter's authentication configuration files or settings for rate limiting, account lockout, or brute force protection mechanisms (look for rate_limit, max_attempts, lockout_duration, or similar settings in config files)
    Affected if No rate limiting, account lockout, or brute force protection settings are defined or enabled for login endpoints
  4. Test authentication behavior
    Send multiple failed login requests to the authentication endpoint and observe whether the application throttles, blocks, or delays responses after a certain number of attempts
    Affected if The application allows unlimited failed login attempts without any throttling, delay, or account lockout response

A system is affected if Wispotter version 1.0 through version v2025.10.08.1 is installed and the authentication mechanism lacks rate limiting, account lockout, or brute force protection controls.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Update Wispotter to version v2025.10.08.1 or later which contains the fix. Until then, implement network-level rate limiting on authentication endpoints and monitor for brute force patterns.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

v2025.10.08.1

  1. Obtain the fixed release v2025.10.08.1 from the vendor (Doruk Communication and Automation Industry and Trade Inc.) or official distribution channel
  2. Backup current configuration and data before upgrading
  3. Upgrade the Wispotter installation to version v2025.10.08.1 or later
  4. Verify the upgrade was successful and the service is operational
  5. Confirm the authentication rate limiting/brute force protection is functioning correctly
