What is CVE-2026-45691?

A session management vulnerability exists in Nextcloud Server that allows an attacker to exploit a pre-2FA session cookie. This cookie, generated after successful password authentication but before completing Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) verification, can be reused as a Bearer token to gain unauthorized read/write access to DAV endpoints. This flaw enables bypassing of mandatory two-factor authentication, which compromises the security of the application. Users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to Nextcloud Server versions 33.0.3 or 32.0.9, and the Nextcloud Enterprise Server to at least versions 33.0.3, 32.0.9, 31.0.14.5, 30.0.17.9, or 29.0.16.16 to mitigate this vulnerability.
