# WidzialniCMS: login lockout bypassed by dropping cookies, enabling unlimited guesses

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-112205 (this .md is for agents)

WidzialniCMS's login lockout relies on cookies, and omitting the login_count and login_timeout cookies disables it. An unauthenticated attacker can therefore try an unlimited number of passwords against login.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Look for the `login_count` and `login_timeout` cookie handling in the WidzialniCMS login code
- Check the installed WidzialniCMS version is below `2.5`

## Fix

- WidzialniCMS: `2.5`

## Timeline

- 2026-11-09T13:26:50+00:00 nvd https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-112205

## From the sources

WidzialniCMS is vulnerable to Bruteforce Protection Bypass in the login functionality. The cookie-based lockout can be bypassed by omitting the login_count and login_timeout cookies, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to perform an unlimited number of login attempts.




This issue has been fixed in version 2.5.
