ZITADEL before 4.17.3 Account Takeover via External IdP Linking

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 04.10.2026 Published: 04.10.2026 Updated: 04.10.2026

ZITADEL 3.0.0 through 3.4.15 and 4.0.0 before 4.17.3 creates links between user accounts and external identity providers without verifying a primary factor or the caller's permission, including on identify-only Login V2 sessions and via the User Service V2 AddIDPLink endpoint. An unauthenticated attacker knowing a victim's login name can bind their own external IdP identity to the victim's account and then sign in as the victim.
