Overview

org.webjars.npm:auth0-js is a Client Side Javascript toolkit for Auth0 API.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization via token validation. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to user profile information by providing a specifically crafted invalid ID token along with a valid access token.

Note: This is only exploitable if the application's access control relies on rules defined in Auth0 Actions.
