Synopsis

DotNetNuke User Enumeration

Description

In a DotNetNuke CMS installation it may be possible to enumerate user information. These DotNetNuke usernames may then be used in brute-force attacks against the login page to guess password credentials and gain access to perform further attacks. Only the first 5 usernames have been analysed during the test.

Solution

Configure the site level user privacy settings to disable profile visibility
