Descriptions

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. There are no known workarounds.

python-jwt es un módulo para generar y verificar tokens web JSON. Las versiones anteriores a 3.3.4, están sujetas a Una Omisión de la Autenticación por medio de Suplantación, resultando en una suplantación de identidad, secuestro de la sesión o omisión de autenticación. Un atacante que obtiene un JWT puede falsificar arbitrariamente su contenido sin conocer la clave secreta. Dependiendo de la aplicación, esto puede permitir al atacante, por ejemplo, falsificar la identidad de otros usuarios, secuestrar sus sesiones o omitir la autenticación. Los usuarios deben actualizar a versión 3.3.4. No se presentan mitigaciones conocidas.
