Descriptions

Python Social Auth is a social authentication/registration mechanism. Prior to version 5.4.1, due to default case-insensitive collation in MySQL or MariaDB databases, third-party authentication user IDs are not case-sensitive and could cause different IDs to match. This issue has been addressed by a fix released in version 5.4.1. An immediate workaround would be to change collation of the affected field.

Python Social Auth es un mecanismo de autenticación/registro social. Antes de la versión 5.4.1, debido a la intercalación predeterminada que no distingue entre mayúsculas y minúsculas en las bases de datos MySQL o MariaDB, los ID de usuario de autenticación de terceros no distinguen entre mayúsculas y minúsculas y podrían hacer que coincidan diferentes ID. Este problema se solucionó mediante una solución publicada en la versión 5.4.1. Un workaround inmediata sería cambiar la clasificación del campo afectado.

A flaw was found in social-auth-app-django. In affected versions of this package, due to default case-insensitive collation in MySQL or MariaDB databases, third-party authentication user IDs are not case-sensitive and could cause different IDs to match.
