Vulnerability Data
Rallly is an open-source scheduling and collaboration tool. Versions up to and including 3.22.1 of the application features token based authentication. When a user attempts to login to the application, they insert their email and a 6 digit code is…

sent to their email address to complete the authentication. A token that consists of 6 digits only presents weak entropy however and when coupled with no token brute force protection, makes it possible for an unauthenticated attacker with knowledge of a valid email address to successfully brute force the token within 15 minutes (token expiration time) and take over the account associated with the targeted email address. All users on the Rallly applications are impacted. As long as an attacker knows the user's email address they used to register on the app, they can systematically take over any user account. For the authentication mechanism to be safe, the token would need to be assigned a complex high entropy value that cannot be bruteforced within reasonable time, and ideally rate limiting the /api/auth/callback/email endpoint to further make brute force attempts unreasonable within the 15 minutes time. As of time of publication, no patched versions are available.

Control response
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly enforces limits on consecutive unsuccessful authentication attempts against the 6-digit token endpoint, blocking brute-force within the 15-minute window.
Requires authenticators to possess sufficient entropy and complexity so that a 6-digit token cannot be feasibly brute-forced before expiration.
Enforces that access is granted only after successful verification of a high-entropy authenticator, preventing account takeover when the token mechanism is weak.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices explicitly include vetted RNG and entropy sources, directly preventing this weakness while covering many other development concerns.
Password-strength policies implicitly require sufficient entropy, but the control addresses authentication rather than algorithmic randomness.
Proper encryption for data-at-rest requires sufficient entropy for keys/nonces; eliminating the weakness therefore supports but does not fully realize the control.
Cryptographic protection of data-in-transit depends on adequate entropy; the weakness directly undermines the control's effectiveness.
