Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication and assume a legitimate user's identity and permissions.
The vulnerability exists due to improper authentication in the OIDC userinfo cache when processing JWT authentication tokens with colliding cache keys. A remote attacker can craft a token whose first 20 characters match a legitimate user's cached token to bypass authentication and assume a legitimate user's identity and permissions.
Only deployments with JWT/OIDC authentication enabled are vulnerable, and the issue depends on a cached legitimate user's token being present.
