Authentication

Authentication is the process of verifying who a user claims to be — typically through passwords, tokens, certificates, biometrics, or hardware authenticators. It is distinct from authorization, which determines what an authenticated user is allowed to do, and the two failure modes are different: a correctly authenticated user can still be a victim of broken access control, and a perfectly authorized request can still come from a forged identity.

Modern authentication relies on layered standards: OAuth 2.0 for delegated access, OpenID Connect for federated identity, SAML for enterprise SSO, JWT for stateless session tokens, and FIDO2/WebAuthn for phishing-resistant passkeys. Each of these has well-documented attack surface — OAuth redirect_uri bypasses, SAML XML signature wrapping, MFA fatigue and AiTM phishing, session fixation, and credential stuffing remain among the most common root causes in real-world breaches.

The shift toward passkeys represents the biggest practical improvement in years: public-key credentials bound to a specific origin eliminate phishing, credential stuffing, and password reuse in one stroke. But the long tail of legacy authentication — password reset flows, OAuth implementations, SAML assertion handling, and MFA bypass paths — continues to produce critical findings across bug bounty programs.

This page collects research, writeups, tools, and standards covering authentication attacks and defenses: OAuth and SAML vulnerabilities, MFA bypass techniques, passkey rollouts, session management, and the OWASP cheat sheets that codify what good authentication looks like.

2026-04-29 NEW 20267 MCP Authentication Vulnerabilities B2B SaaS Vendors Must Prevent beginnerAnalysis of 281 MCP implementations by Pynt reveals significant authentication vulnerabilities in AI agent integrations. B2B SaaS vendors must address token leakage via tool results, confused deputy via token passthrough, prompt injection leading to auth bypass, and over-scoped OAuth grants. Prompt injection, exemplified by a Supabase Cursor incident, allows attackers to exploit untrusted external content as executable instructions. Mitigations include sanitizing tool results, independent authentication to downstream services, strict input validation, and enforcing least-privilege OAuth scopes, aligning with MCP spec updates like RFC 8707. → securityboulevard.com
2026-04-22 2026OAuth2 Proxy Authentication Bypass via X-Forwarded-Uri (CVE-2026-40575) newsWriteup of CVE-2026-40575 detailing a critical authentication bypass in OAuth2 Proxy. This vulnerability arises from trusting client-supplied `X-Forwarded-Uri` headers in reverse proxy configurations using `–skip_auth_routes` or `–skip-auth-regex`, allowing attackers to bypass authentication by spoofing this header. Mitigation involves upgrading to version 7.15.2 or later, configuring `–trusted-proxy-ip`, and stripping or overwriting the `X-Forwarded-Uri` header at the reverse proxy level. → dailycve.com
2026-04-22 2026Keycloak SAML Disabled Client SSO Bypass (CVE-2026-3047) newsWriteup of CVE-2026-3047, a CVSS 8.8 flaw in Keycloak's SAML broker (`org.keycloak.broker.saml`), enabling SSO bypass.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between authentication and authorization?
Authentication (authn) verifies who a user is — typically through passwords, tokens, certificates, or biometrics. Authorization (authz) determines what an authenticated user is allowed to do. The two are often conflated but rely on different mechanisms and fail in different ways. A correctly authenticated user can still be a victim of broken authorization, and vice versa.
What are the most common authentication vulnerabilities?
Common authentication flaws include credential stuffing, weak password policies, missing or bypassable multi-factor authentication, predictable session tokens, password reset poisoning, OAuth redirect_uri manipulation, SAML signature wrapping, and JWT algorithm confusion. Many real-world breaches start with authentication weaknesses rather than novel exploitation.
Are passkeys actually more secure than passwords?
Yes — passkeys use public-key cryptography bound to a specific origin, which eliminates phishing, credential stuffing, and password reuse attacks. The private key never leaves the user's device. Passkeys are based on the WebAuthn and FIDO2 standards and are now supported by major browsers, operating systems, and identity providers.
