Problem

/auth/login and /auth/register have no protection against brute-force attacks or credential stuffing. An attacker can make unlimited requests.

Work

  • Add rate limiting middleware (e.g., slowapi or fastapi-limiter backed by Redis or in-memory).
  • Apply a strict limit to /auth/login (e.g., 5 attempts per minute per IP).
  • Apply a looser limit to /auth/register (e.g., 10 per hour per IP).
  • Return HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header when the limit is exceeded.
  • Document the chosen library in requirements.txt.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Exceeding the login rate limit returns 429.
  • Normal usage (1-2 logins per minute) is not affected.
  • Rate limiter configuration is exposed via environment variables (e.g., AUTH_RATE_LIMIT).

Reference

Roadmap item: Error handling and resilience — No rate limiting on auth endpoints.

[Repo Manager] This issue is resolved. api.py already uses slowapi with rate limiting: 5/minute on /auth/login and 10/minute on /auth/register. HTTP 429 responses include proper error messages.
