CVE-2026-40586
No affected components available
blueprintUE is a tool to help Unreal Engine developers. Prior to 4.2.0, the login form handler performs no throttling of any kind. Failed authentication attempts are processed at full network speed with no IP-based rate limiting, no per-account attempt counter, no temporary lockout, no progressive delay (Tarpit), and no CAPTCHA challenge. An attacker can submit an unlimited number of credential guesses. The password policy (10+ characters, mixed case, digit, special character) reduces the effective keyspace but does not prevent dictionary attacks, credential stuffing from breached databases, or targeted attacks against known users with predictable passwords. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.2.0.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker does not need any special privileges or access rights. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability. The impact is confined to the system where the vulnerability exists. There is a high impact on the confidentiality of the information.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
We did not find any exploit available. Neither in GitHub repositories nor in the Exploit-Database.
