Identification and Authentication Failures

Confirmation of the user's identity, authentication, and session management is critical to protect against authentication-related attacks.

Überblick

Previously known as Broken Authentication. Slid down from #2, now includes CWEs more related to identification failures. This category is still an integral part of the Top 10.

Wie Angreifer dies ausnutzen

Das Verstehen von Angriffsmustern hilft Ihnen, bessere Verteidigungen aufzubauen. Dies sind die Techniken, die Sicherheitsteams überwachen.

Credential stuffing

Attackers use lists of stolen credentials from other breaches to attempt login across many sites.

Erkennungssignal: High volume of failed logins across multiple accounts from distributed sources

Session hijacking

Session tokens are captured or predicted, allowing attackers to impersonate authenticated users.

Erkennungssignal: Session tokens appearing in URLs, sessions used from unexpected locations

Brute force attacks

Automated attempts to guess passwords through systematic trial of many possibilities.

Erkennungssignal: High volume of failed login attempts against single or multiple accounts

Wie Sie vorbeugen

  • Implement multi-factor authentication where possible
  • Do not ship or deploy with default credentials
  • Implement weak password checks against common passwords
  • Align password policies with modern guidelines
  • Harden registration and credential recovery against enumeration
  • Limit or delay failed login attempts with proper logging
  • Use secure session management with high-entropy session IDs
