Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.94%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

The PlexTrac platform prior to API version 1.17.0 does not restrict excessive MFA TOTP submission attempts. An unauthenticated remote attacker in possession of a valid username and password can bruteforce their way past MFA protections to login as the targeted user.
