Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Spring Security, versions 5.7 prior to 5.7.5, and 5.6 prior to 5.6.9, and older unsupported versions could
 be susceptible to a privilege escalation under certain conditions. A malicious user or attacker can modify
 a request initiated by the Client (via the browser) to the Authorization Server which can lead to a
 privilege escalation on the subsequent approval. This scenario can happen if the Authorization Server

 on the subsequent request to the token endpoint to obtain the access token. (CVE-2022-31690)
