An improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts vulnerability has been reported to affect several QNAP operating system versions. If exploited, the vulnerability could allow local network authenticated administrators to perform an arbitrary number of authentication attempts via unspecified vectors. QuTScloud is not affected. We have already fixed the vulnerability in the following versions: QTS 5.2.0.2782 build 20240601 and later QuTS hero h5.2.0.2782 build 20240601 and later
This vulnerability carries a LOW severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 2.6, indicating it requires adjacent network access but requires specific conditions to be met without requiring user interaction . The vulnerability impacts limited data confidentiality, for affected systems. Impacting 2 products from qnap, from qnap organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2024, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For qnap's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
