Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass signature verification integrity checks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper restriction of cross-host redirects in the OIDC discovery flow and verifier cache when processing a malicious jwks_uri. A remote attacker can return discovery metadata that points jwks_uri to an attacker-controlled host to bypass signature verification integrity checks.
