- Summary
- ZITADEL: Login V2 UI Policy Bypass Allows Unauthorized Self-Registration and Authentication
- Details
-
Summary
A vulnerability in Zitadel's login V2 UI allowed users to bypass login behavior and security policies and self-register new accounts or sign in using password even if corresponding options were disabled in their organizaton.
Impact
Zitadel enables administrators to configure their organization’s login behavior and security policies. As part of this functionality, they can disable user self-registration, enforce passwordless logins only, and more.
Due to improper enforcement an attacker could send direct HTTP requests to the login UI and create accounts in organizations that have disabled user self-registration, and gain unauthorized access to the system. The same attack vector could be used to authenticate for example using username and password even when this login method was disabled.
