CVE-2025-2413
📋 TL;DR
This vulnerability allows attackers to bypass authentication in Akinsoft ProKuafor software by exploiting excessive authentication attempts. It affects all ProKuafor installations running versions from s1.02.08 up to but not including v1.02.08. Attackers can potentially gain unauthorized access to the system without valid credentials.

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete system compromise where attackers gain administrative access, potentially leading to data theft, system manipulation, or deployment of additional malware.
Likely Case
Unauthorized access to user accounts, privilege escalation, and potential data exposure or modification.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper rate limiting and monitoring, though authentication bypass attempts may still occur.
🎯 Exploit Status
Authentication bypass vulnerabilities typically have low exploitation complexity. The vulnerability allows bypassing authentication mechanisms through excessive attempts.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: v1.02.08
Vendor Advisory: https://www.usom.gov.tr/bildirim/tr-25-0204
Restart Required: Yes
Instructions:
1. Download v1.02.08 from official Akinsoft sources. 2. Backup current installation and data. 3. Run the update installer. 4. Restart the ProKuafor service. 5. Verify the update was successful.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Implement Rate Limiting
allConfigure network or application-level rate limiting for authentication attempts
# Use firewall or WAF to limit authentication requests per IP
# Example: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [PROKUAFOR_PORT] -m state --state NEW -m recent --set
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [PROKUAFOR_PORT] -m state --state NEW -m recent --update --seconds 60 --hitcount 10 -j DROP
Network Segmentation
allRestrict access to ProKuafor to trusted networks only
# Firewall rule to restrict access: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [PROKUAFOR_PORT] -s [TRUSTED_NETWORK] -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [PROKUAFOR_PORT] -j DROP
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement strong network segmentation and isolate the ProKuafor server from untrusted networks
- Deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) with rate limiting and authentication attempt monitoring rules
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check ProKuafor version in application settings or about dialog. If version is between s1.02.08 and before v1.02.08, the system is vulnerable.Check Version:
Check application interface for version information or examine installation directory for version filesVerify Fix Applied:
Verify version shows v1.02.08 or later in application settings. Test authentication with excessive attempts to confirm rate limiting works.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Multiple failed authentication attempts from single IP
- Successful authentication after many failed attempts
- Authentication logs showing unusual patterns
Network Indicators:
- High volume of authentication requests to ProKuafor port
- Authentication attempts with varying credentials from same source
SIEM Query:
source="prokuafor.log" ("authentication failed" OR "login failed") | stats count by src_ip | where count > 10
