logiciel de bourrage de mots de passe


Explanation:
Le grand dictionnaire terminologique traduit "credential stuffing attack" par "attaque par bourrage d'identifiants". Je resterais donc avec la racine "bourr-"... mais en privilégiant "bourrage" plutôt que "bourreur"... donc logiciel de bourrage, application de bourrage, système de bourrage, dispositif de bourrage pour prendre quelques exemples.

Bourrage de mot de passe/bourrage d'identifiant


Explanation:
Thought it might be an interesting translation as "to stuff" could be translated as "bourrer" or "gaver" in french.

https://www.cnil.fr/fr/definition/credential-stuffing-attaqu...

"Le credential stuffing (ou bourrage d'identifiant) consiste à réaliser, à l'aide de logiciels ou de façon manuelle, des tentatives d'authentification massives sur des sites et services web à partir de couples identifiants/mots de passe"
