Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authentication due to the improper handling of JWT tokens in the JwtFilter
component. Specifically, the mechanism that checks the request's path against a list of excluded endpoints fails to properly validate JWTs if the request's path includes any excluded endpoints via path parameters. This flaw allows an attacker to bypass authentication by crafting a request that includes arbitrary strings in the path, effectively matching the excluded endpoint condition and proceeding without JWT validation. This vulnerability enables unauthorized access to any endpoint without proper authentication.
