Technical details

The passwordRecoveryCheck endpoint in SOGo lacks rate limiting and lockout mechanisms, allowing brute-force attacks on secret-question answers (CWE-307). Once an attacker guesses the correct answer, they obtain a recovery JWT that can be used with the connect endpoint to reset the password and gain full account access, bypassing the need for the original credential. This affects accounts without TOTP two-factor authentication enabled.
