Airship AI Acropolis allows unlimited MFA attempts for 15 minutes after a user has logged in with valid credentials. A remote attacker with valid credentials could brute-force the 6-digit MFA code. Fixed in 10.2.35, 11.0.21, and 11.1.9.
Weakness
The product does not implement sufficient measures to prevent multiple failed authentication attempts within a short time frame.

Potential Mitigations
Common protection mechanisms include:
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid [REF-1482].
Consider using libraries with authentication capabilities such as OpenSSL or the ESAPI Authenticator. [REF-45]
