The WPO365 plugin releases fixes for two high-severity flaws affecting all versions through 44.1. CVE-2026-104759 scores 8.1 and enables full site takeover via id_token replay when a specific option is set. CVE-2026-96765 scores 7.2 and permits stored XSS in error logs. Users should update to version 45.0 to prevent attacks.

The WPO365 | SEAMLESS WORDPRESS + MICROSOFT INTEGRATION plugin has received fixes for two vulnerabilities that affect all versions through 44.1.
Unauthenticated attackers who possess a previously issued valid id_token can replay it to authenticate as any WordPress user, including administrators.
Authentication bypass allows full site takeover. CVE-2026-104759 carries a CVSS score of 8.1. The flaw stems from Id_Token_Service_Deprecated::process_openidconnect_token() using the incompatible wp_verify_nonce() function to validate a nonce created by Nonce_Service::create_nonce(). The 64-character hex nonce can never be verified, so the check fails silently and execution proceeds to authenticate_oidc_user() with an attacker-supplied id_token. Unauthenticated attackers who possess a previously issued valid id_token can replay it to authenticate as any WordPress user, including administrators. The issue is exploitable only when the use_id_token_parser_v2 option is enabled.

Stored XSS persists in error transients. CVE-2026-96765 carries a CVSS score of 7.2. Insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the id_token parameter let unauthenticated attackers inject arbitrary scripts. The payload is stored in the wpo365_errors transient for up to three days after a crafted request containing malicious HTML in the base64url-decoded unique_name or iss claim. An administrator who later visits the WPO365 wizard page triggers execution.
The payload is stored in the wpo365_errors transient for up to three days after a crafted request containing malicious HTML in the base64url-decoded unique_name or iss claim.
Fixes released in version 45.0. The plugin changelog and code changesets confirm that both issues were addressed in the 45.0 release. Trac references show updates to Id_Token_Service.php, Id_Token_Service_Deprecated.php, Nonce_Service.php, Script_Helpers.php, Log_Service.php, Request_Service.php, and Router_Service.php.

    Snipe-IT before 8.6.3: deactivated users can sign back in via Google SSO (CVE-2026-116199)

    A newly published CVE (CVE-2026-116199, assigned by VulnCheck on Oct 25) covers a flaw in Snipe-IT's Google SSO login. Versions before 8.6.3 didn't check whether an account was deactivated, so a former user whose Google account was still active could sign back in with their old permissions, including admin. It only applies when Google SSO is on and usernames are email addresses, and Snipe-IT says default installs aren't affected. The fix shipped in v8.6.3 on June 15, and the latest release is v8.8.3. VulnCheck scores it 9.2 Critical (CVSS 4.0) and 8.1 High (CVSS 3.1), while Snipe-IT's advisory rates it Moderate. It isn't in CISA's KEV catalog, and no public exploit or attacks have been reported.
