SCA: security update for authlib (GHSA-q686-2qmg-hqc7)
medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 477608
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- Authlib is a Python library which builds OAuth and OpenID Connect servers. Prior to 1.9.0,
OpenIDImplicitGrant.validate_authorization_request() checks the client-controlled raw
request.payload.scope for openid after the parent grant has filtered allowed scopes into request.scope. A
registered client permitted an ID token response type but not the openid scope can add openid to the
request, obtain user consent, and receive a signed ID token containing the user's subject and allowed
profile claims. Authorization code flow and deployments that allow openid for every client permitted an ID
token response are not affected. In authlib/oidc/core/grants/implicit.py,
OpenIDImplicitGrant.validate_authorization_request() checks request.payload.scope instead of the filtered
request.scope. This issue is fixed in version 1.9.0. (CVE-2026-114619)
Solution
Update the authlib library and its related packages to version 1.9.0 or later.See Also
