Quantifying Mix Network Privacy Erosion with Generative Models

Modern mix networks improve over Tor and provide stronger privacy guarantees by robustly obfuscating metadata. As long as a message is routed through at least one honest mixnode, the privacy of the users involved is safeguarded. However, the complexity of the mixing mechanisms makes it difficult ...

Devise-Two-Factor vulnerable to brute force attacks

Devise-Two-Factor does not throttle or otherwise restrict login attempts at the server by default. When combined with the Time-based One Time Password algorithm's TOTP inherent entropy limitations, it's possible for an attacker to bypass the 2FA mechanism through brute-force attacks. Impact If a...
