Description
Misskey is an open source, federated social media platform. Prior to 2026.6.0, Misskey contains a vulnerability in Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) authentication in UserAuthService where insufficient validation of used tokens allows the reuse of a single-use code within its valid time step. If both credentials and a TOTP code are obtained concurrently, an attacker may reuse the code to perform unauthorized actions, potentially leading to account takeover. This issue is fixed in version 2026.6.0.

AI Analysis

Impact

Misskey’s Time‑based One‑Time Password authentication allows a single‑use code to be replayed within its valid time window because the system does not record used tokens. An attacker who obtains both a victim’s login credentials and a concurrent TOTP code can reuse that code to authenticate as the victim and perform any action permitted by those credentials, potentially a failure to enforce one‑time usage of TOTP tokens and is classified as CWE‑294.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Misskey instances running any version prior to 2026.6.0. The affected vendor is misskey-dev, product Misskey.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS v3 score of 7.4 denotes high severity, while an EPSS score of < 1 % indicates a very low but probability vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but that does not mitigate its potential impact. Based on the description, it is inferred that the attack vector requires an attacker to first compromise a user by credential theft or phishing—and simultaneously With both pieces of information, the attacker can replay the same code within the same time step authorized action, potentially enabling account takeover.
