Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to an error in the revocation process. If a Jetty OpenIdAuthenticator uses the optional nested LoginService, and that LoginService decides to revoke an already authenticated user, then the current request will still treat the user as authenticated.


Remediation

Install updates from vendor's website.
