Overview

vantage6 is a vantage6 command line interface

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Race Condition via the API routes /recover/lost and /2fa/lost, which are designed to assist users in recovering lost passwords or MFA tokens. An attacker can determine the existence of specific usernames within the system by observing differences in response times or by the specific error message "Failed to login" that is returned if the username exists.
