REC Overview and Root Cause Analysis of the 2023 LPFM Window LMS Vulnerability Incident

A recent discussion on a Facebook group related to Low Power FM (LPFM) had expressed concern over what was being called by some as a “data breach”.  Specifically, it was reported that it was possible to view LPFM applications that were filed during the window period prior to the close of the window period.
