Vulnerability Details
## Summary: Most of the brute force protections don't actually throttle() the response and so they are not logging negative attempts Search for functions with the `@BruteForceProtection` annotation and check that they call `throttle()` on the response at least conditionally. ## Impact Brute force protection is not throttling any requests: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/blob/b70c6a128fe5d0053b7971881696eafce4cb7c26/lib/private/AppFramework/Middleware/Security/BruteForceMiddleware.php#L78-L82
