CVE-2026-34828: listmonk: Active sessions remain valid after password reset and password change
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.30% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: knadh listmonk 6.1.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to knadh listmonk 6.1.0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
listmonk is a standalone, self-hosted, newsletter and mailing list manager. From version 4.1.0 to before version 6.1.0, a session management vulnerability allows previously issued authenticated sessions to remain valid after sensitive account security changes, specifically password reset and password change. As a result, an attacker who has already obtained a valid session cookie can retain access to the account even after the victim changes or resets their password. This weakens account recovery and session security guarantees. This issue has been patched in version 6.1.0.
