Description
Bitwarden Server 2025.6.0 before 2026.5.0 declares the @ExternalId parameter of the User_ReadBySsoUserOrganizationIdExternalId stored procedure as NVARCHAR(50) while the column it queries stores NVARCHAR(300), silently truncating the SSO login identifier on SQL Server deployments and allowing a user whose identity-provider identifier begins with another organization member's full 50-character identifier to authenticate as that member and obtain a victim-scoped access token.
