Apache Shiro 1.x and 2.x releases prior to 2.0.7 contain an observable timing discrepancy in authentication handling. Processing paths for a non-existent username and for an existing username supplied with an incorrect password differ sufficiently that repeated timing measurements may distinguish the two failure conditions. This can enable username enumeration.
