CVE-2026-111639 mlogclub CVE debrief
CVE-2026-111639 is an authentication bypass vulnerability in bbs-go through version 4.4.6, allowing remote attackers to log in as other users by submitting Google ID tokens issued to any OAuth client. This vulnerability exists in the /api/login/google_one_tap endpoint, where the aud claim is never checked. Attackers can capture and replay Google-signed ID tokens to obtain an authenticated session as the victim's Google-linked account. Defenders responsible for bbs-go deployments should assess exposure and prioritize verification and remediation to prevent potential unauthorized access to user accounts and possible lateral movement within the affected system.
