CVE-2022-35925 affects BookWyrm versions prior to 0.4.5, where a lack of rate limiting on authentication views enables brute-force attacks. This critical vulnerability (CVSS 9.8) allows unauthenticated attackers to achieve high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability with low attack complexity. While there is no evidence of active exploitation or public exploit code, and community discussion is minimal, users are strongly advised to upgrade to version 0.4.5 or manually update their nginx.conf files to mitigate this risk.
