    Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts in Sorcery

    CVE-2020-11052 · GHSA-jc8m-cxhj-668x

    Affected
    • RubyGems sorcery < 0.15.0
    Fixed in
    0.15.0· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Impact Brute force vulnerability when using password authentication via Sorcery. The brute force protection submodule will prevent a brute force attack for the defined lockout period, but once expired protection will not be re-enabled until a user or malicious actor logs in successfully. This does not affect users that do not use the built-in brute force protection submodule, nor users that use permanent account lockout. Patches Patched as of version 0.15.0. Workarounds Currently no workarounds, other than monkey patching the authenticate method provided by Sorcery or upgrading to version 0.15.0.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 0.15.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
