The following code, extracted from a servlet's doPost() method, performs an authentication lookup every time the servlet is invoked.
int authResult = authenticateUser(username, password);However, the software makes no attempt to restrict excessive authentication attempts.
This code attempts to limit the number of login attempts by causing the process to sleep before completing the authentication.
$isAuthenticated = authenticateUser($username, $password);However, there is no limit on parallel connections, so this does not increase the amount of time an attacker needs to complete an attack.
In the following C/C++ example the validateUser method opens a socket connection, reads a username and password from the socket and attempts to authenticate the username and password.
}
return(SUCCESS);return(FAIL);
}}isValidUser = AuthenticateUser(username, password);The validateUser method will continuously check for a valid username and password without any restriction on the number of authentication attempts made. The method should limit the number of authentication attempts made to prevent brute force attacks as in the following example code.
