CVE-2013-4965

Publication date 25 October 2013

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Puppet Enterprise before 3.1.0 does not properly restrict the number of authentication attempts by a console account, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a brute-force attack.
