CVE-2024-21652: Bypassing Brute Force Protection via Application Crash and In-Memory Data Loss

March 18, 2024 (updated January 9, 2025)

An attacker can exploit a chain of vulnerabilities, including a Denial of Service (DoS) flaw and in-memory data storage weakness, to effectively bypass the application’s brute force login protection. This makes the application susceptible to brute force attacks, compromising the security of all user accounts.
