CVE-2026-44649: SillyTavern has Authentication Bypass via SSO Header Injection
(updated )
SillyTavern accepts Remote-User (Authelia) and X-Authentik-Username (Authentik) HTTP
headers to automatically log in users when SSO is configured. There is no validation that
these headers originate from a trusted reverse proxy. Any network client that can reach
the SillyTavern port directly can inject these headers and authenticate as any user,
including administrators, without a password. This vulnerability is exploitable only when sso.autheliaAuth: true or
sso.authentikAuth: true is set in config.yaml (both default to false).
