Joplin: SSO Auth Code Login Missing Rate Limiting — 9-Digit Numeric Code Brute-Forceable via Unprotected Endpoint

Published Sep 21, 2026 · Updated Sep 28, 2026 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

Joplin is an open source note-taking and to-do application that organises notes and lists into notebooks. Prior to 3.7.2, Joplin Server's GET /api/login_with_code/:id endpoint accepts a nine-digit SSO authentication code with a ten-minute lifetime without applying limiterLoginBruteForce. An unauthenticated attacker who targets a user during an active SSO login can make unlimited guesses, and a correct code returns a full session token that permits access to and modification of the user's notes, notebooks, and account settings. This issue is fixed in version 3.7.2.
