3) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-22228)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to the application.

The vulnerability exists due to BCryptPasswordEncoder does not properly enforce maximum password length and will return "true" for passwords larger than 72 characters as long as the first 72 characters are the same. This can be used set weak passwords that can be easily brute-forced.

4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-24970)
