CVE-2022-39227 – Python-jwt subject to Authentication Bypass by Spoofing

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2022-39227

python-jwt is a module for generating and verifying JSON Web Tokens. Versions prior to 3.3.4 are subject to Authentication Bypass by Spoofing, resulting in identity spoofing, session hijacking or authentication bypass. An attacker who obtains a JWT can arbitrarily forge its contents without knowing the secret key. Depending on the application, this may for example enable the attacker to spoof other user's identities, hijack their sessions, or bypass authentication. Users should upgrade to version 3.3.4. • https://github.com/user0x1337/CVE-2022-39227 https://github.com/NoSpaceAvailable/CVE-2022-39227 https://github.com/davedoesdev/python-jwt/commit/88ad9e67c53aa5f7c43ec4aa52ed34b7930068c9 https://github.com/davedoesdev/python-jwt/security/advisories/GHSA-5p8v-58qm-c7fp https://github.com/pypa/advisory-database/blob/main/vulns/python-jwt/PYSEC-2022-259.yaml https://www.vicarius.io/vsociety/posts/authentication-bypass-in-python-jwt • CWE-290: Authentication Bypass by Spoofing •
