Account compromise via unlimited login attempts
Published Dec 10, 2021 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Improper login-attempt limiting in Huntflow Enterprise before 3.10.14 allows remote attackers to brute-force account passwords. The /account/login handler accepts repeated credential submissions without enforcing a server-side attempt limit or throttle. Unauthenticated network access is sufficient, enabling password guessing and account access when a valid password is found.
