Rucio is a software framework that provides functionality to organize, manage, and access large volumes of scientific data using customizable policies. Prior to versions 35.8.3, 38.5.4, and 39.3.1, the WebUI login endpoint returns distinct error messages depending on whether a supplied username exists, allowing unauthenticated attackers to enumerate valid usernames. Versions 35.8.3, 38.5.4, and 39.3.1 fix the issue.

This medium-severity CVE scores 5.3 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit-prediction score not yet available (the EPSS model rescores nightly; freshly-published CVEs typically appear within 48 hours). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
