Limits and lockout of Two-Factor Authentication
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A second factor is meant to protect users if their password is somehow leaked
|
||||||
|
or guessed. However, some factors could still be broken by brute force. For
|
||||||
|
this reason, users will be locked out after too many failed 2nd factor login
|
||||||
|
attempts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For TOTP 8 failed attempts will disable the user's TOTP factors. They are
|
||||||
|
unlocked when logging in with a recovery key. If TOTP was the only available
|
||||||
|
factor, admin intervention is required, and it is highly recommended to require
|
||||||
|
the user to change their password immediately.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Since FIDO2/Webauthn and recovery keys are less susceptible to brute force
|
||||||
|
attacks, the limit there is higher, but block all second factors for an hour
|
||||||
|
when exceeded.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
An admin can unlock a user's Two-Factor Authentication at any time via the user
|
||||||
|
list in the UI or the command line:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[source,bash]
|
||||||
|
pveum user tfa unlock joe@pve
