Wso2 Carbon Magiclink Authenticator Module
Monthly
Memory exhaustion denial-of-service in WSO2 Identity Server's Magic Link authenticator allows remote unauthenticated attackers to crash the authentication service by flooding invalid login requests without rate limiting. The vulnerability affects deployments using the Magic Link authentication flow and has an EPSS score indicating moderate exploitation likelihood. WSO2 has published a security advisory (WSO2-2025-4469) with remediation guidance for affected Identity Server and Carbon MagicLink Authenticator Module installations.
Due to a lack of user account state validation during authentication, locked user accounts can be successfully authenticated using Magic Link or Pass Key methods. This bypasses the intended security control that should prevent access to accounts that have been locked. This vulnerability may allow unauthorized access to applications and sensitive data associated with accounts that should have been restricted via the account lock mechanism. It also undermines the effectiveness of the account lock mechanism intended to prevent further login attempts.
