etcd has no mechanism to prevent brute force cracking

Open SingleThread opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

etcd does not limit the number of connections with incorrect passwords, which may lead to the cracking of the administrator password, which poses a certain security risk.

You can create a user with no password based authentication with etcdctl user add <user name> --no-password. Such a user only allows CN based authnz. If you really want to avoid the brute force risk, I think it works for the purpose.
