Authentication Failures
Confirmation of the user's identity, authentication, and session management is critical to protect against authentication-related attacks.
Aperçu
Renamed from 'Identification and Authentication Failures' for precision. This category covers weaknesses in authentication mechanisms including credential management, session handling, and identity verification.
Comment les Attaquants Exploitent Cela
Comprendre les patterns d'attaque vous aide à construire de meilleures défenses. Ce sont les techniques que les équipes de sécurité surveillent.
Credential stuffing
Attackers use lists of stolen credentials from other breaches to attempt login across many sites.
Session hijacking
Session tokens are captured or predicted, allowing attackers to impersonate authenticated users.
Brute force attacks
Automated attempts to guess passwords through systematic trial of many possibilities.
Comment Prévenir
- 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 (NIST 800-63)
- 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
