Description
Summary
The Casa OS Login page has disclosed the username enumeration vulnerability in the login page.
Details
It is observed that the attacker can enumerate the CasaOS username using the application response. If the username is incorrect application gives the error "User does not exist", If the password is incorrect application gives the error "Invalid password".
PoC
Capture the login request in a tool like Burp Suit and use the intruder tab for trying multiple usernames. Keep checking the response of each request if the response says Invalid password then the username is right.
Impact
Using this error attacker can enumerate the username of CasaOS.
The logic behind the issue
If the username is incorrect, then throw an error "User does not exist" else throw an error "Invalid password".
This condition can be vice versa like:
If the password is incorrect, then throw an error "Invalid password" else throw an error "User does not exist".
Mitigation
Since this is the condition we have to implement a single error which can be "Username/Password is Incorrect!!!"

Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/IceWhaleTech/CasaOS-UserService, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update github.com/IceWhaleTech/CasaOS-UserService to 0.4.7 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2024-24766 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
