  "details" : [ "Authlib is a Python library which builds OAuth and OpenID Connect servers. From version 1.6.5 to before version 1.6.7, previous tests involving passing a malicious JWT containing alg: none and an empty signature was passing the signature verification step without any changes to the application code when a failure was expected.. This issue has been patched in version 1.6.7.", "A flaw was found in Authlib, a Python library for building OAuth and OpenID Connect servers. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious JSON Web Token (JWT) with a \"none\" algorithm and an empty signature. This bypasses the expected signature verification, potentially allowing the attacker to forge tokens and gain unauthorized access or perform unauthorized actions within applications using Authlib." ],
