    Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts in py-bcrypt

    CVE-2013-1895 · GHSA-r838-q6jp-58xx

    Affected
    • PyPI py-bcrypt < 0.3
    Fixed in
    0.3· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    The py-bcrypt module before 0.3 for Python does not properly handle concurrent memory access, which allows attackers to bypass authentication via multiple authentication requests, which trigger the password hash to be overwritten.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 0.3 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
