Authentication bypass via unrestricted OTP attempts
Published Sep 3, 2025 · Updated Jun 6, 2026
Improper authentication-attempt restriction in AKINSOFT LimonDesk allows remote attackers to bypass OTP checks over the network. The public record identifies unrestricted authentication attempts but does not disclose the affected endpoint, attempt counter, or OTP validation logic. The OTP flow requires no prior authentication or user interaction; the record does not define the exact privileges available after bypass.
