Security Researcher Detected: You might have ended up here because your site vulnerability scanner found something interesting. Hi! I'm a security engineer and I'm having a good time interacting with the people and bots that are interested in information security.

You will hopefully find this site is well-secured and I'm not interested in being hacked. I'm interested in learning about how people try to hack me, though.

What is this endpoint?

api/v2/auth/login

API Authentication Login Endpoint

What an attacker could do

A login endpoint is the primary target for credential stuffing, brute force, and username enumeration that can yield valid account access if responses or timing differ for valid versus invalid users.

How to defend it

Enforce rate limiting and account lockout, return uniform error responses, add MFA, and monitor for high-volume authentication failures.
