Last modified Jun 17, 2026

CVE-2024-32868 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.1/10 on the CVSS scale. ZITADEL provides users the possibility to use Time-based One-Time-Password (TOTP) and One-Time-Password (OTP) through SMS and Email. While ZITADEL already gives administrators the option to define a `Lockout Policy` with a maximum amount of failed password check attempts, there was no such mechanism for (T)OTP checks. EPSS estimates a 0.46% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
