CVE-2024-38888: An issue in Horizon Business Services Inc. Caterease Software allows a local attacker
to perform a Password Brute Forcing attack due to improper restriction of excessive authentication
attempts.
Vulnerability Type: CWE-307: Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts
Vendor of the Product: Horizon Business Services Inc.
Affected Product: Caterease Software
Affected Versions: 16.0.1.1663 through 24.0.1.2405
Attack Vector: Local
Attack Type: CAPEC-49: Password Brute Forcing
Vulnerability Summary: Caterease Software lacks adequate controls to prevent excessive authentication
attempts, making it susceptible to brute force attacks. The login mechanism in Caterease Software
activates the "OK" button only when a correct password is entered, allowing attackers to test passwords
without actually sending them to the server. This design flaw enables attackers to systematically try
numerous password combinations until they find the correct one, effectively bypassing standard security
measures that should limit failed login attempts.
By exploiting this vulnerability, attackers can eventually gain unauthorized access to user accounts,
leading to significant security risks. Unauthorized access allows attackers to compromise the
confidentiality of user data and perform actions within the application that may compromise data integrity.
CVSS Base Score: Medium Risk - 6.8
