Pingvin Share X before 1.22.0 Rate Limit Bypass via Spoofed X-Forwarded-For

Published Oct 10, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 6.9 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Pingvin Share X before 1.22.0 contains a rate limit bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to evade per-IP throttling because backend/src/main.ts unconditionally trusts proxy headers. Attackers can rotate spoofed X-Forwarded-For values against /api/auth/signIn, /api/auth/signIn/totp, and /api/auth/resetPassword to brute-force passwords and TOTP codes and forge logged client IP addresses.
