Answer in brief
CVE-2026-71205 records a Medium severity (CVSS 6.5) vulnerability in changedetection.io: No Rate Limiting on /login Enables Unlimited Password Brute-Force. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps dgtlmoon/changedetection.io (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
CVSS is 6.5. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

changedetection.io's /login route checks the submitted password against a single PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 hash with no per-IP or per-session rate limiting, failed-attempt counter, or lockout (no rate-limiting library is present in requirements.txt). Because the entire application is protected by one shared password with no per-user accounts, a successful brute-force guess grants full administrative access, including the ability to view/regenerate the API token.
