LibreChat is an enhanced ChatGPT clone that supports multiple AI providers. Prior to 0.8.4-rc1, the POST /api/auth/2fa/backup/regenerate endpoint regenerates all 2FA backup codes without requiring any TOTP token or existing backup code verification. An attacker with a stolen session token can silently replace a victim's backup codes and use them to bypass 2FA login or disable 2FA entirely. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.4-rc1.
CVE-2026-54040
This high-severity CVE scores 7.1 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.1%, top 95% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
