CVE-2026-62860
Published:October 30, 2026
Updated:November 04, 2026
Picsou is a self-hosted personal finance dashboard. In the affected login implementation, the "/api/auth/login" endpoint reveals whether a username exists through a timing discrepancy. In "backend/src/main/java/com/picsou/controller/AuthController.java", "AuthController.login()" throws "BadCredentialsException" immediately for an unknown username, before "passwordEncoder.matches(...)", whereas an existing username with an incorrect password incurs the "bcrypt" comparison cost. Both cases return the same generic "HTTP 401" response, but repeated latency measurements disclose valid usernames without credentials. Login rate limiting, a small user population, and deployments inaccessible from outside the local network limit practical exposure; the weakness does not itself read or modify account data, though enumerated usernames can assist credential stuffing or brute-force attacks. This issue is fixed in repository release 1.0.8.
