Summary
BookStack before 26.05.5 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in its social login implementation that allows unauthenticated attackers to sign in as arbitrary users by authenticating through a different social provider sharing the same driver_id namespace. Attackers can authenticate at one enabled social provider using a user ID that matches an account linked to a different social provider, bypassing credential verification entirely because the SocialAuthService::handleLoginCallback query ignores the driver column when retrieving linked account records.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can take over any account, including administrative accounts, without knowing credentials. This poses a serious risk to data confidentiality and integrity.
Recommendation
Upgrade BookStack to version 26.05.5 or later. Until patched, consider disabling social login.
