Technical details
The vulnerability stems from improper handling of an internal authentication state flag (SSO_AUTH) during login flow transitions. When an authenticated user in multiple organizations initiates a registration or password reset flow, the flag is not cleared from the session. An attacker can then supply a victim's username, and the system incorrectly treats the stale flag as proof of the victim's identity, bypassing authentication. This is a CWE-305 authentication bypass requiring network access and low privileges (attacker must have organization membership).
