CVE-2026-105835
PLANKA 2.2.0 through 2.2.1 TOTP Brute Force via verify-totp Endpoint
Description

PLANKA 2.2.0 through 2.2.1 fails to limit incorrect TOTP codes submitted to POST /api/access-tokens/verify-totp, allowing attackers to brute force two-factor authentication codes. Attackers who know a user's password can reuse the ten-minute pending token to guess six-digit codes until one succeeds, obtaining a full access token.

CVSS Scores
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System is a standardized framework for assessing the severity of vulnerabilities in software and systems. We collect and displays CVSS scores from various sources for each CVE.
Score Version Severity Vector Exploitability Score Impact Score Source
CVSS 3.1 HIGH 83251b91-4cc7-4094-a5c7-464a1b83ea10
CVSS 3.1 HIGH MITRE-CVE
CVSS 3.1 HIGH [email protected]
CVSS 4.0 CRITICAL 83251b91-4cc7-4094-a5c7-464a1b83ea10
CVSS 4.0 CRITICAL [email protected]
Solution
Enforce stricter rate limiting on TOTP verification attempts.
  • Implement rate limiting for TOTP verification.
  • Increase the complexity of TOTP codes.
  • Consider account lockout after multiple failed attempts.
