Use CVE-2015-8606.

Our understanding is that "Locale" and "FailedLoginCount" are a
different way of describing the same problem, relative to
"NumericField" and "DropdownField" above. For example, part of the
source code is:

                $fields->replaceField('Locale', new DropdownField (
                        'Locale',
                        $this->fieldLabel('Locale'),

In other words, mentioning "Locale" and "FailedLoginCount" does not
mean that the number of known independent attack vectors is being
increased from 2 to 4.
