CVE-2026-84313Nginx UI: TOTP / passkey enrolment requires no re-authentication, enabling persistent account takeover

Does this affect you?

It affects 0xJacky nginx-ui. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.43%, higher than 36% of scored CVEs.

Nginx UI is a web user interface for the Nginx web server. Prior to 2.4.1, POST /api/otp_enroll and POST /api/finish_passkey_register are registered outside RequireSecureSession and accept a normal authenticated session without verifying the current password. An attacker with a stolen JWT can bind an attacker-controlled TOTP secret when the victim has not already enabled TOTP, or can register an attacker-controlled passkey because that path has no equivalent existing-enrollment guard. These changes create persistent account access that can survive a password change and interfere with the legitimate user's authentication. This issue is fixed in version 2.4.1.
