CVE-2026-41569 PUBLISHED

authentik: WS-Federation wreply origin bypass can exfiltrate signed login responses to attacker-controlled endpoints

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 21.04.2026 Published: 02.06.2026 Updated: 03.06.2026

authentik is an open-source identity provider. Prior to version 2026.2.3, the WS-Federation provider validates the user-supplied wreply parameter using a raw string prefix check rather than proper URL parsing. An attacker who can craft a login link can supply a wreply value on a different origin that passes the check (e.g. https://portal.example.com.evil.tld/), causing the victim's browser to POST the signed WS-Federation login response to attacker-controlled infrastructure. This issue has been patched in version 2026.2.3.
