## What is CVE-2025-53968?

CVE-2025-53968 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in EVMAPA, published on 22 Jan 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

This vulnerability arises because there are no limitations on the number
 of authentication attempts a user can make. An attacker can exploit 
this weakness by continuously sending authentication requests, leading 
to a denial-of-service (DoS) condition. This can overwhelm the 
authentication system, rendering it unavailable to legitimate users and 
potentially causing service disruption. This can also allow attackers to
 conduct brute-force attacks to gain unauthorized access.

Weakness: CWE-307 (Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts)

Check this codebase for CVE-2025-53968 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2025-53968 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in EVMAPA, published on 22 Jan 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-53968 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: EVMAPA. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
