If OTPs are generated client-side and exposed in requests or responses, it severely compromises their security, rendering the authentication process vulnerable.
Additionally, if the OTP logic or algorithm is hardcoded in client-side code, attackers can reverse-engineer it to predict future OTPs or bypass the verification entirely. Such implementations allow attackers to impersonate legitimate users, perform unauthorized transactions, or gain access to sensitive information.
Client-side OTP generation exposes systems to:
