Live › vulnerability › CVE-2024-24769
Vantage6 does not limit how many password or MFA reset emails the API sends. An attacker who knows a valid password can flood a user's mailbox and get the SMTP server flagged as a spam sender.
Summary written from the sources below. Check the originals before acting.
First seen by InfraStack 2026-11-03 16:20 UTC, 0h before NVD. All times on this page are UTC.
Teams running a Vantage6 server below 5.0.0 that expose the password or MFA reset API routes. The attacker needs a correct password to trigger the MFA reset, which limits the impact. Teams on 5.0.0 or later, or not running the Vantage6 server, can skip it.

vantage6 is an open-source infrastructure for privacy preserving analysis. Prior to version 5.0.0, users can reset their MFA token via API routes that send them an email. Currently the number of emails that is sent is not limited. This gives attackers the option to flood someones mailbox with a lot of emails, and would have adverse effects on the SMTP server which may be seen as spam sender. Note resetting the MFA token requires a correct password, so the potential impact for this is very low. Version 5.0.0 fixes the issue. No known workarounds are available.
