A fix is available — apply it.

Bitwarden Server 2025.6.0 before 2026.5.0 declares the @ExternalId parameter of the User_ReadBySsoUserOrganizationIdExternalId stored procedure as NVARCHAR(50) while the column it queries stores NVARCHAR(300), silently truncating the SSO login identifier on SQL Server deployments and allowing a user whose identity-provider identifier begins with another organization member's full 50-character identifier to authenticate as that member and obtain a victim-scoped access token.

A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines at low or medium mission impact and sooner than that at high.

Exploitation public PoC (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact total (CISA Vulnrichment). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
