CVE-2026-23901

Observable Timing Discrepancy vulnerability in Apache Shiro.

This issue affects Apache Shiro: from 1.*, 2.* before 2.0.7.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.0.7 or later, which fixes the issue.

Prior to Shiro 2.0.7, code paths for non-existent vs. existing users are different enough,
that a brute-force attack may be able to tell, by timing the requests only, determine if
the request failed because of a non-existent user vs. wrong password.

The most likely attack vector is a local attack only.
Shiro security model  https://shiro.apache.org/security-model.html#username_enumeration  discusses this as well.

Typically, brute force attack can be mitigated at the infrastructure level.

CWE-208 Observable Timing Discrepancy

Two separate operations in a product require different amounts of time to complete, in a way that is observable to an actor and reveals security-relevant information about the state of the product, such as whether a particular operation was successful or not.
