Overview

github.com/zitadel/zitadel/internal/api/oidc is a package for identity infrastructure

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Authorization in the OAuth2 Token Exchange process. An attacker can gain elevated permissions by exchanging a low-privilege token for higher privileges at another application due to insufficient verification that the subject token belongs to the requesting client and that requested scopes are within the original token's scopes.
