How do Android phones protect against brute-force attacks?

To protect against brute-force attacks, Android phones usually have safeguards such as limiting the number of attempts a user can make, as well as liveness detection. But the researchers bypassed these by using two zero-day vulnerabilities dubbed Cancel-After-Match-Fail (CAMF) and Match-After-Lock (MAL).

How much does a bruteprint attack cost?

BrutePrint requires just $15 of equipment and a little amount of time with a phone. Researchers have devised a low-cost smartphone attack that cracks the authentication fingerprint used to unlock the screen and perform other sensitive actions on a range of Android devices in as little as 45 minutes.

What is an example of automatic fingerprint bruteforce attack?
