CVE-2026-105210: ZITADEL missing authentication in Login V1 MFA enrollment

CVE-2026-105210 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.2 · Published 2026-10-04

ZITADEL is an identity and access management platform that handles user authentication and authorization. A flaw in its hosted Login V1 UI allows attackers who know only a victim's username to enroll their own multi-factor authentication methods (TOTP, SMS, email codes, security keys) and change the victim's phone number before the victim has even entered a password. This compromises account integrity and enables user enumeration, creating a foothold for account takeover if combined with other attacks.

Technologies: ZITADEL. Vendors: ZITADEL.

Technical details

An unauthenticated attacker can exploit missing authentication checks on second-factor enrollment handlers in ZITADEL's Login V1 UI. These handlers process requests at the identify-only session stage (after username submission but before primary factor verification), allowing attackers to modify the victim's authentication factors and phone number. The vulnerability also discloses user existence via differential error messages, and affects all OIDC/SAML flows using the hosted Login V1 interface.
