CVE-2026-65824: OpenReception: invite confirmation token is replayable within its validity window and re-issues a registration-bootstrap cookie

Published Oct 23, 2026
·
Updated

OpenReception's appointment booking software provides an end-to-end encrypted appointment booking platform. Prior to version 2.2.1, an attacker who captures a pending invite token can replay it to obtain a passkey-registration credential and register their own passkey on the invited account, taking control of that account. For a staff or tenant-admin invite this yields access to the tenant context tied to that account. This issue has been patched in version 2.2.1.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

What does an attacker need to exploit this issue?

The attacker must capture a pending invite confirmation token while it remains valid. They can then replay the token to obtain a passkey-registration credential and register their own passkey for the invited account.

2

Which accounts create the greatest exposure?

Any invited account can be taken over if its pending invite token is captured and replayed. Staff and tenant-admin invitations have greater impact because compromise gives the attacker access to the tenant context associated with that account.

3

Are deployments running the fixed release affected?

No. The issue is patched in OpenReception version 2.2.1; versions prior to 2.2.1 are affected.
