Titleminio <=RELEASE.2025-10-15T17-29-55Z Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts
DescriptionMinIO's STS (Security Token Service) LDAP authentication endpoint (AssumeRoleWithLDAPIdentity) contains two vulnerabilities that, when combined, allow unauthenticated attackers to compromise LDAP user accounts: User Enumeration: Distinct error messages reveal whether a username exists No Rate Limiting: Unlimited authentication attempts without throttling or lockout Successful exploitation grants attackers temporary AWS-style credentials (AccessKeyId/SecretAccessKey/SessionToken) with full access to the victim's S3 buckets.
