Description
CVE-2026-76949 is an authentication bypass vulnerability in the team-alembic ash_authentication library. It allows an attacker who can plant a remember-me cookie in a victim's browser to replace the victim's authenticated session with the attacker's session. This occurs due to inconsistent session key handling in the remember-me sign-in logic, causing the system to honor the attacker's cookie even when the victim has an active authenticated session. The vulnerability affects versions from 4.10.0 up to but not including 4.15.0, and from 5.0.0-rc.0 up to but not including 5.0.0-rc.14.
