What is CVE-2026-43912?

Vaultwarden, a Bitwarden-compatible server, has a security flaw in its group management system. Prior to version 1.35.5, it fails to enforce organization-specific restrictions for user groups and collection entries. This could allow a user with administrative privileges in one organization to manipulate group memberships across different organizations without appropriate verification. Consequently, an attacker could gain unauthorized access to sensitive data by binding foreign organization memberships, leading to potential data leaks and breaches. This flaw was addressed in version 1.35.5, enhancing organizational security.
