CVE-2026-107145: twofactor_gauthenticator plugin for Roundcube brute-force bypass

CVE-2026-107145 · Severity: info · Published 2026-10-27

The twofactor_gauthenticator plugin for Roundcube is an add-on that provides two-factor authentication using Google Authenticator codes to protect webmail accounts. Without rate limiting on authentication attempts, an attacker who knows a user's password can repeatedly guess the 6-digit second-factor code, potentially bypassing two-factor protection and gaining unauthorized access to email accounts.

Technologies: Alexandregz Twofactor Gauthenticator. Vendors: Alexandregz.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a lack of rate limiting (CWE-307) in the second-factor authentication code validation mechanism. An authenticated attacker can submit arbitrary 6-digit codes without restriction, allowing brute-force attacks with reasonable probability of success within the typical time window a code is valid. Related vulnerabilities in the same plugin include session persistence after failed 2FA verification (CVE-2026-107146) and IP spoofing in 2FA bypass (CVE-2026-107147).
