NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libapache2-mod-auth-openidc package and not the libapache2-mod-auth-openidc package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

The "OpenID Connect Relying Party and OAuth 2.0 Resource Server" (aka mod_auth_openidc) module before 2.1.5 for the Apache HTTP Server does not skip OIDC_CLAIM_ and OIDCAuthNHeader headers in an "OIDCUnAuthAction pass" configuration, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via crafted HTTP traffic.
