Summary
Duplicate Advisory: Authlib: empty signatures validation in JWS JSON deserialization
Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-6v38-4h7w-rj9h. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

Authlib (v1.7.2 and below) contains a signature verification bypass vulnerability. The JsonWebSignature.deserialize_json() method accepts a JSON Serialization JWS object and returns the payload as successfully verified without checking for a signature and without requiring a cryptographic key.
