CVE-1999-1324 Information

Description

VAXstations running Open VMS 5.3 through 5.5-2 with VMS DECwindows or MOTIF do not properly disable access to user accounts that exceed the break-in limit threshold for failed login attempts which makes it easier for attackers to conduct brute force password guessing.
