Attackers obtaining exported archives can extract the TOTP seed and generate valid one-time codes to bypass two-factor authentication.

MEDIUM 5.3EPSS 0.38%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.38%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

phpMyFAQ versions before 4.1.8 include live TOTP shared secrets in plaintext within user data export ZIP files. Attackers obtaining exported archives can extract the TOTP seed and generate valid one-time codes to bypass two-factor authentication.
