    CVE ID         : CVE-2024-37568 CVE-2025-59420 CVE-2025-61920 CVE-2025-62706


    Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in python-authlib, a Python
    library for OAuth and OpenID Connect servers.

    CVE-2024-37568

        Unless an algorithm is specified in a jwt.decode call, HMAC verification
        is allowed with any asymmetric public key.

    CVE-2025-59420

        Authlibs JWS verification accepts tokens that declare unknown critical
        header parameters (crit), violating RFC 7515 mustunderstand semantics.
        An attacker can craft a signed token with a critical header that strict
        verifiers reject but Authlib accepts. In mixedlanguage fleets, this
        enables splitbrain verification and can lead to policy bypass, replay,
        or privilege escalation.

    CVE-2025-61920

        Authlibs JOSE implementation accepts unbounded JWS/JWT header and
        signature segments which can lead to a DoS during verification.

    CVE-2025-62706

        Authlibs JWE zip=DEF path performs unbounded DEFLATE decompression
        which can lead to a DoS.


    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version
    0.15.4-1+deb11u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-authlib packages.
