Description

Tandoor Recipes is an application for managing recipes, planning meals, and building shopping lists. In versions prior to 2.6.0, Tandoor Recipes configures Django REST Framework with BasicAuthentication as one of the default authentication backends. The AllAuth rate limiting configuration (ACCOUNT_RATE_LIMITS: login: 5/m/ip) only applies to the HTML-based login endpoint at /accounts/login/. Any API endpoint that accepts authenticated requests can be targeted via Authorization: Basic headers with zero rate limiting, zero account lockout, and unlimited attempts. An attacker can perform high-speed password guessing against any known username. Version 2.6.0 patches the issue.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached over the network, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs no privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity high, availability none.
