Brute force incorrect redirects

  • I recently had problems with several pages (at different times) with cookie based brute force prevention. I was unable to login, redirection was active even when correct secret URL was entered. After disabling brute force redirection through wp-config, clearing wp caching plugin and clearing and setting cookie based brute force prevention, secret url started to work, but after filling username and password, the page was redirecting in a loop (back again to login screen). After a while of tinkering, I found out that clearing Cookie based prevention, and setting Rename login page url fixed things.
    Is there any cache in the plugin for PHP-based redirection which can be cleared in such cases?
    If so, how to do it?

    Hi @lovor

    Do you have the lastest version AIOS 5.3.0 installed?

    Recently we have idenified that there was Issue with cookie based bruteforce prevention if salt postfix feature is on and it keep redirecting to 127.0.0.1

    If you have already AIOS 5.3.0 then it might be the browser cache.

    In plugin or WordPress there will not be any cache which may result in such redirection

    Yes, I have 5.3.0 installed. It might be a browser cache, I’ll investigate further.
