Background
Sylius is an open-source eCommerce platform built on Symfony, designed to provide a flexible and customizable solution for online stores. It offers a range of features including product management, order processing, and customer management. However, the platform is vulnerable to a rate limiting issue that allows attackers to perform brute-force attacks on user accounts, compromising security and user experience.
Vulnerability Detail
The vulnerability identified as CVE-2024-57610 in Sylius version 2.0.2 stems from a lack of proper rate limiting on user account login attempts. This oversight permits remote attackers to execute unlimited login attempts, significantly increasing the likelihood of account compromise through brute-force methods. The ramifications include unauthorized access to user accounts and potential denial of service for legitimate users, as they may be locked out due to excessive failed login attempts.
How To Fix
