omniauth-auth0 (rubygems) versions >= 2.3.0 and < 2.4.1 improperly validate the JWT token signature when using the jwt_validator.verify method. Improper validation of the JWT token signature can allow an attacker to bypass authentication and authorization. You are affected by this vulnerability if all of the following conditions apply: 1. You are using omniauth-auth0. 2. You are using JWTValidator.verify method directly OR you are not authenticating using the SDK’s default Authorization Code Flow. The issue is patched in version 2.4.1.

Weakness

The product does not verify, or incorrectly verifies, the cryptographic signature for data.
