FLIP doesn't have rate limiting or brute-force protection on login
Federated Learning and Interoperability Platform (FLIP) is an open-source platform for federated training and evaluation of medical imaging AI models across healthcare institutions. The FLIP login page in versions 0.1.1 and prior has no rate limiting or CAPTCHA, enabling brute-force and credential-stuffing attacks. FLIP users are external to the organization, increasing credential reuse risk. As of time of publication, it is unclear if a patch is available.
