The PlexTrac platform prior to version 1.17.0 does not restrict excessive authentication attempts for accounts configured to use the PlexTrac authentication provider. An unauthenticated remote attacker could perform a bruteforce attack on the login page with no time or attempt limitation in an attempt to obtain valid credentials for the platform users configured to use the PlexTrac authentication provider.
The product does not implement sufficient measures to prevent multiple failed authentication attempts within a short time frame.
