Overview

authlib is a library in building OAuth and OpenID Connect servers.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Replay Attack via parse_id_token in authlib/integrations/base_client/sync_openid.py and its async counterpart, where an ID Token containing a nonce_supported: false claim causes the library to set the expected nonce to None, bypassing nonce validation entirely. An attacker who can intercept or replay an ID Token can suppress the nonce check by including this claim, allowing token replay attacks that compromise the integrity of the OpenID Connect authentication flow. Additionally, JAR (JWT Authorization Request) signature requirements can be bypassed through algorithm customization, and request_uri values are fetched without prior validation against registered URIs.
