CVE-2024-41682Network attack vector

Password compromise via unrestricted authentication attempts

Published Aug 13, 2024 · Updated Aug 13, 2024

Improper login-attempt restriction in Siemens Location Intelligence before 4.4 allows remote attackers to brute-force user passwords. The authentication path does not adequately limit repeated failed login attempts, but Siemens has not disclosed the specific control or implementation error. No authentication or user interaction is required; repeated guesses can disclose a legitimate user's password and enable access as that user.
