This vulnerability exists in Shilpi Client Dashboard due to missing restrictions for incorrect login attempts on its API based login. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by conducting a brute force attack on password, which could lead to gain unauthorized access to other user accounts.

Weakness

The product does not implement sufficient measures to prevent multiple failed authentication attempts within a short time frame, making it more susceptible to brute force attacks.

Affected Software
