The loadUserSettings function in Load.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) before 1.1.13, and 2.x before 2.0 RC5, does not properly handle invalid login attempts, which might make it easier for remote attackers to obtain access or cause a denial of service via a brute-force attack.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2011-1128 is an old Simple Machines Forum authentication weakness. Affected versions mishandled failed logins, which could make password-guessing attacks easier and could also contribute to denial of service. The source bundle does not show active exploitation or a CVSS score. Exposure is likely limited to internet-facing or internal Simple Machines Forum installations running before 1.1.13, or 2.x builds before 2.0 RC5. Organizations without SMF are not exposed based on the provided sources. Treat this as a targeted cleanup item for any legacy forum estate. It is not KEV-listed and lacks severity scoring, but exposed outdated SMF login pages can create account compromise and availability risk. Mitigation focus: Upgrade SMF 1.1.x installations to 1.1.13 or later.; Upgrade SMF 2.x pre-release installations to 2.0 RC5 or later.; Use the official SMF patch only where vendor guidance says it applies..
