This module enables you to protect individual pages with a password. The module doesn't limit the number of password attempts, making it vulnerable to brute force attacks. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must know the protected page's URL. **CVSS risk score ([experimental](https://www.drupal.org/project/securitydrupalorg/issues/3442181)) 6.3 / Medium** [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N](https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/4-0#CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N)
