A password hash is computed with a work factor below the accepted minimum (bcrypt cost under 10 or PBKDF2 under 10000 iterations).
Category: SECURITY · Engine rule severity: WARNING
How to fix it
Use bcrypt.DefaultCost or higher; for PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 use at least 600000 iterations, or prefer argon2id.
