OpenCTI's lack of Rate Limit lead to OTP brute forcing

CVE-2024-45404

What is CVE-2024-45404?

The OpenCTI platform, an open-source tool for cyber threat intelligence, contains a vulnerability affecting versions prior to 6.2.18, where the absence of rate limiting on One Time Password (OTP) requests allows attackers with valid credentials to bypass two-factor authentication mechanisms. Internal threats are also a risk, as malicious users can exploit this flaw to gain unauthorized access to accounts. Without a patch currently available, the security of OpenCTI installations relying on these older versions is at risk.
