GHSA-F4CF-9RVR-2RCX
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-12-10 18:20 – Updated: 2026-02-02 16:34Summary
Zitadel's User Service discloses the total number of instance users to unauthorized users.
Impact
The ZITADEL User Service exposes the total number of users within an instance to any authenticated user, regardless of their specific permissions. While this does not leak individual user data or PII, disclosing the total user count via the totalResult field constitutes an information disclosure vulnerability that may be sensitive in certain contexts.
Affected Versions
Systems running one of the following version are affected:
- 4.x:
4.0.0-rc.1through4.7.1 - 3.x:
3.0.0-rc.1through3.4.4 - 2.x:
2.44.0through2.71.19
Patches
The vulnerability has been addressed in the latest release. The patch resolves the issue and returns the totalResult value corresponding to the number of instance users for whom the querying user has read permission.
- 4.x: Upgrade to >= 4.7.2
- 3.x: Update to >= 3.4.5
- 2.x: Update to >= 3.4.5 (or checkout the workarounds section)
Workarounds
The recommended solution is to update Zitadel to a patched version.
If a version upgrade is not possible, you can enable the permissionCheckV2 feature on your instance.
Questions
If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, please email us at security@zitadel.com
Credits
This vulnerability was found by zentrust partners GmbH during a scheduled penetration test. Thank you to the analysts Martin Tschirsich, Joud Zakharia, Christopher Baumann. The full report will be made public after the complete review.

Mitigation
Production applications should never use methods that generate internal details such as stack traces and error messages unless that information is directly committed to a log that is not viewable by the end user. All error message text should be HTML entity encoded before being written to the log file to protect against potential cross-site scripting attacks against the viewer of the logs
CAPEC-170: Web Application Fingerprinting
An attacker sends a series of probes to a web application in order to elicit version-dependent and type-dependent behavior that assists in identifying the target. An attacker could learn information such as software versions, error pages, and response headers, variations in implementations of the HTTP protocol, directory structures, and other similar information about the targeted service. This information can then be used by an attacker to formulate a targeted attack plan. While web application fingerprinting is not intended to be damaging (although certain activities, such as network scans, can sometimes cause disruptions to vulnerable applications inadvertently) it may often pave the way for more damaging attacks.
CAPEC-694: System Location Discovery
An adversary collects information about the target system in an attempt to identify the system's geographical location.
