Authentication bypass and account takeover in ThingsBoard (CVE-2026-36537)
ThingsBoard improperly trusts user-supplied identity data in the `user` parameter of the `/login/oauth2/code/` OAuth 2.0 authorization code exchange endpoint. A remote attacker can manipulate the email address in this parameter to authenticate as any existing user without possessing their credentials. This results in a complete account takeover.
Affected versions:
- ThingsBoard v4.3.0.1 and potentially earlier versions
We recommend updating to: ThingsBoard v4.2.2.1, ThingsBoard v4.3.1.1.
