Technical details
The vulnerability is an authentication bypass in OIDC account linking logic. When a user authenticates via OIDC, Wallos matches the incoming email claim to an existing local account without verifying the IdP's email_verified flag. An attacker controlling or gaining access to an IdP that permits unverified or arbitrary email claims (such as a multi-tenant IdP, open self-registration, or a compromised IdP) can present the admin's email address during authentication and be granted access as that admin. The vulnerability affects versions 4.0.0 through 4.9.5; patching requires verifying the email_verified claim from the IdP before linking accounts. No authentication or special user interaction is required beyond redirecting to the vulnerable OIDC flow.
