VU#492466: Logto Identity Platform has authentication and authorization failures in core protocol handling

0
Critical
VulnerabilityCVE-2026-15611
Published: 07/23/2026 (07/23/2026, 15:40:37 UTC)
Source: CERT/CC

Description

The Logto Identity Platform contains multiple vulnerabilities in its authentication and single sign-on (SSO) components that weaken core identity protections. These flaws allow attackers to bypass account-ownership checks, skip multi-factor authentication (MFA), replay federated sessions, and submit identity assertions without proper validation. The issues affect OIDC, OAuth 2.1, and SAML protocols and create several paths for unauthorized access in both local and federated sign-in flows. No vendor patch or statement is currently available, and mitigation relies on defensive configurations and operational controls.

Technical Analysis

Logto, an identity and access management system by Silverhand Inc., has multiple authentication and authorization vulnerabilities affecting its core protocol handling. Key issues include unverified email-based SSO account linking (CVE-2026-15611), nonce validation bypass when the nonce claim is omitted in id_tokens (CVE-2026-15612), non-atomic handling of IdP-initiated SAML sessions allowing replay (CVE-2026-15614), bypass of SAML Conditions element time-window checks when the element is missing (CVE-2026-15615), MFA bypass on SSO sign-ins when federated identity is verified (CVE-2026-15616), and strict but unnormalized identity attribute comparisons causing incorrect account linking (CVE-2026-15617). These vulnerabilities collectively undermine authentication reliability and authorization decisions across OIDC, OAuth 2.1, and SAML protocols, enabling unauthorized access through multiple attack vectors. Silverhand Inc. has not provided a patch or coordinated response, and no official fix is currently available.

Potential Impact

The vulnerabilities reduce the reliability of authentication and authorization decisions in Logto, allowing attackers to bypass account-ownership verification, skip local MFA requirements, replay federated SSO assertions, and inject unvalidated or unsigned identity assertions. This can lead to unauthorized access to user accounts and services protected by Logto's identity platform. The issues affect both local and federated sign-in flows and compromise core security guarantees of OIDC, OAuth 2.1, and SAML protocols within the platform.

Mitigation Recommendations

No official patch or vendor advisory is available as Silverhand Inc. could not be reached for coordination. Until a patch is released, administrators should reduce the attack surface by avoiding provisioning local accounts with emails used for federated sign-in, disabling or avoiding Logto's social SAML connector, requiring MFA at the upstream identity provider for all federated sign-ins, enforcing strict domain normalization at the IdP or provisioning layer, shortening session lifetimes, aggressively invalidating sessions, monitoring authentication logs for anomalies, and placing Logto behind an identity-aware reverse proxy.
