Summary

Snipe-IT before 8.6.3 contains an authentication bypass in GoogleAuthController::handleGoogleCallback, which logs in the user whose username matches the Google account email. The flaw is improper authorization because the activated flag is not enforced. An unauthenticated remote attacker can sign in via Google SSO as a deactivated user with an email-shaped username and a still-live Google identity, regaining a session at that user's original permission level, including admin.
