[BUG] entering no / wrong 2FA can cause you to be rate limited as the app spams login requests

Open tompointexe opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hi As of tooday, i got rate limited by steam cuz of a bug in the app When you login in steam with a wrong / no 2FA code, the app spams request to login, spaming phone / mail of notifications, and rate limiting accounts ...

Please verify that there is content in the text box / and that the code is valid before spaming login requests

Thanks

I'm aware of this issue, and I have no idea what causes it. I'll take a look at this, thanks for reconfirming and bringing this up again.

couldn't we check if there is no charecter in the 2FA field and just fire an error ? and not continue auth ?
