Two-factor authentication bypass via session-token replay
Published Jun 1, 2026 · Updated Jun 1, 2026
Improper authentication in Nextcloud Server 32.0.0 through 32.0.8 and 33.0.0 through 33.0.2 allows remote authenticated users to bypass 2FA. User\Session::tryTokenLogin accepts a temporary pre-2FA session token from an Authorization Bearer header, although that token should remain cookie-bound. Possession of a password-authenticated session cookie before TOTP completion is required, after which DAV resources can be read or written without the second factor.
