How to fix?

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Brute Force due to the lack of a lockout mechanism for Time-based One-Time-Password (TOTP) and One-Time-Password (OTP) checks. An attacker can bypass Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) by repeatedly attempting to authenticate with incorrect (T)OTP values without triggering a lockout condition.
