Account takeover via unverified Steam OpenID assertions
Published Sep 2, 2026 · Updated Sep 2, 2026
Improper authentication in miniOrange OAuth Single Sign On 6.25.0 through 7.0.0 allows remote attackers to take over non-admin accounts. The Steam single sign-on handler accepts an OpenID identity assertion without verifying it with Steam before selecting or provisioning the asserted WordPress user. The Steam login flow must be enabled and reachable; exploitation grants a non-admin WordPress session or provisions a new user.
