An Account Takeover (ATO) attack application lacks proper rate limiting on authentication endpoints. In this scenario, an attacker
can systematically brute-force a username and password combination without being hindered
by limits on the number of attempts.
Without rate limiting, there is no mechanism to restrict the number of login attempts from a
single IP address or session within a certain period, allowing attackers to use automation tools
to try a large number of password combinations. This can lead to a successful account
compromise, giving attackers unauthorised access to user accounts.
Recommendation: It is recommended to implement rate limiting on authentication endpoints to
limit the number of login attempts.
