Summary

Plane, an open-source project management tool, is affected before version 1.4.0. Its magic-code email login uses a six-digit numeric code and does not count failed attempts or limit requests to the verifier, which enables brute force (CWE-307). An unauthenticated remote attacker can guess login codes until one is accepted and gain access to the victim's account.

Description from the CNA

Plane is an open-source project management tool. Prior to 1.4.0, Plane's magic-code email login uses a six-digit numeric OTP with approximately 20 bits of entropy. The verifier has no per-code failed-attempt counter, and an incorrect code does not increment a counter, invalidate the Redis entry, or lock the email address. The verifier extends django.views.View rather than DRF's APIView, so the configured AnonRateThrottle limit does not apply. The middleware stack also contains no Django-level rate limiter such as django-ratelimit, django-axes, or an IP-throttling middleware. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.4.0.
