Account access via unrestricted password guessing
Published Oct 23, 2023 · Updated Sep 11, 2024
Missing login throttling in UVDesk Community Skeleton 1.1.1 allows remote attackers to gain account access through brute force. The memberLogin endpoint accepts more than 50 consecutive password guesses without disconnecting the requester, timing out, or locking the account. The login page requires no authentication, but account compromise still requires a correct password guess for a targeted username.
