What is CVE-2026-60104?

A vulnerability in Bitwarden Server prior to version 2026.6.0 allows a low-privileged member of an organization to exploit the authentication request process. By creating a Trusted Device Encryption request using an attacker-controlled public key, the malicious actor can obtain another user's vault key and a victim-specific access token. This information can be accessed through an unauthenticated endpoint once the request is approved, leading to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive vault data and potential account takeover.

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
