Wallos, an open-source self-hostable subscription tracker, contains a critical authentication vulnerability in versions 4.0.0 through 4.9.5. The OIDC login flow matches incoming identities to local accounts solely based on the email claim, without checking the email_verified flag from the Identity Provider. An attacker can exploit this by authenticating via an IdP that allows arbitrary or unverified email addresses, such as multi-tenant or open self-registration IdPs. By presenting an admin's email address during OIDC login, an attacker with no existing Wallos account can gain full administrative access without knowing any password. This constitutes a complete account takeover vulnerability. The flaw is especially dangerous when Wallos is configured against permissive or attacker-controlled IdPs. The vulnerability has been patched in version 4.9.6, and users are strongly advised to upgrade immediately.
