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 version 1.6.9, a
    cryptographic padding oracle vulnerability was identified in the Authlib Python library concerning the
    implementation of the JSON Web Encryption (JWE) RSA1_5 key management algorithm. Authlib registers RSA1_5
    in its default algorithm registry without requiring explicit opt-in, and actively destroys the constant-
    time Bleichenbacher mitigation that the underlying cryptography library implements correctly. This issue
    has been patched in version 1.6.9. (CVE-2026-28490)

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-4579 advisory.

    Three security vulnerabilities were discovered in python-authlib, a python     library which builds OAuth and OpenID Connect servers, that can cause     authentication bypass or information leaks.

    CVE-2026-27962

      Fix authentication and authorization bypass vulnerability by embedding a       crafted public key in the jwk header field when key=None is passed to JWS       deserialization functions.

    CVE-2026-28490

      Authlib exposed distinguishable error responses between invalid PKCS#1 v1.5       padding and invalid AES-GCM tag, enabling Bleichenbacher-style attacks.

    CVE-2026-28498

      Fix OIDC ID Token validation bypass in at_hash and c_hash verification.
      _verify_hash() silently returned True when create_half_hash() received an       unknown algorithm, allowing forged ID          Tokens to pass validation.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     0.15.4-1+deb11u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-authlib packages.

    Package        : python-authlib     Version        : 0.15.4-1+deb11u4 1.2.0-1+deb12u2     CVE ID         : CVE-2026-27962 CVE-2026-28490 CVE-2026-28498 CVE-2026-41425                      CVE-2026-44681

    The following security issue has been identified (and fixed) in python-authlib     as shipped in Debian bullseye and Debian bookworm.

    CVE-2026-44681

        An unauthenticated open redirect in Authlib's OpenIDImplicitGrant         and OpenIDHybridGrant authorisation endpoint allowed a remote         attacker to cause the authorisation server to issue an HTTP 302 to         an attacker-chosen URL by submitting an authorisation request that         omits the openid scope.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version     0.15.4-1+deb11u4.

    In addition, the following issues have been fixed in the python-authlib version     as shipped in Debian bookworm:

    CVE-2026-27962

        Fix authentication and authorization bypass vulnerability by embedding a         crafted public key in the jwk header field when key=None is passed to JWS         deserialisation functions.

        Authlib exposed distinguishable error responses between invalid PKCS#1 v1.5         padding and invalid AES-GCM tag, enabling Bleichenbacher-style attacks.

    CVE-2026-28498

        _verify_hash() silently returned True when create_half_hash() received an         unknown algorithm, allowing forged ID Tokens to pass validation.

    CVE-2026-41425

        CSRF protection now covers the cache feature in         authlib.integrations.starlette_client.OAuth as well.

    For Debian 12 bookworm, these problems have been fixed in version     1.2.0-1+deb12u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-authlib packages.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS / 26.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8557-1 advisory.

    Jay Neiva and Mauro Carrillo discovered that Authlib did not properly validate cryptographic keys embedded     in JWT headers. An attacker could possibly use this issue to forge trusted tokens, resulting in     authentication and authorization bypass. (CVE-2026-27962)

    Jay Neiva and Mauro Carrillo discovered that Authlib incorrectly handled RSA1_5 encrypted tokens. An     attacker could possibly use this issue to recover sensitive encrypted information, resulting in     information disclosure. (CVE-2026-28490)

    Jay Neiva and Mauro Carrillo discovered that Authlib did not properly reject unsupported cryptographic     algorithms when validating OpenID Connect ID tokens. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass     token integrity checks, resulting in authentication bypass. (CVE-2026-28498)

    Johnny Deuss discovered that Authlib did not provide cross-site request forgery protection for the OAuth     cache feature in its Starlette integration. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform     unauthorized OAuth actions, resulting in cross-site request forgery. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04     LTS and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS.
