Official description

This vulnerability exists in Shilpi Client Dashboard due to implementation of inadequate authentication mechanism in the login module wherein access to any users account is granted with just their corresponding mobile number. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing mobile number of targeted user, to obtain complete access to the targeted user account.

The underlying weakness: Use of Single-factor Authentication

The product uses an authentication algorithm that uses a single factor (e.g., a password) in a security context that should require more than one factor.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Use multiple independent authentication schemes, which ensures that -- if one of the methods is compromised -- the system itself is still likely safe from compromise. For this reason, if multiple schemes are possible, they should be implemented and required -- especially if they are easy to use.
