ZITADEL's Improper Lockout Mechanism Leads to MFA Bypass

Published Apr 25, 2024 · Updated Aug 5, 2024 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

ZITADEL provides users the possibility to use Time-based One-Time-Password (TOTP) and One-Time-Password (OTP) through SMS and Email. While ZITADEL already gives administrators the option to define a `Lockout Policy` with a maximum amount of failed password check attempts, there was no such mechanism for (T)OTP checks. This issue has been patched in version 2.50.0.
