The vulnerability allows a remote user to bypass certain security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists in the OidcSessionTokenStore when determining if a cached token should be used or not. When an OIDC app that serves multiple tenants attempts to access the second tenant, it should prompt the user to log in again since the second tenant is secured with a different OIDC configuration. A remote user can gain unauthorized access to the second tenant.
