Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Craft CMS versions before 3.1.7 (package craftcms/cms) do not rate limit the elevated session password prompt, unlike normal login forms. An attacker who can reach that prompt could attempt brute force password guesses against it. Upgrade to craftcms/cms 3.1.7 or later.
