CVE-2026-86084: n8n: Disabled OIDC SSO Endpoints Remain Active and Issue Valid Sessions
The public OIDC login and callback endpoints ran the full flow whether or not OIDC was the instance’s active, enabled authentication method, so turning OIDC off in Settings did not stop it issuing sessions. An administrator who disabled the provider still had a working login route. The patch requires OIDC to be the enabled, active authentication method before either endpoint starts the flow or issues a session.
The issue affects n8n Enterprise instances where OIDC was configured at least once and subsequently disabled.
