  - Authlib is a Python library which builds OAuth and OpenID Connect servers. In versions 1.0.0 through
    1.6.5, cache-backed state/request-token storage is not tied to the initiating user session, so CSRF is
    possible for any attacker that has a valid state (easily obtainable via an attacker-initiated
    authentication flow). When a cache is supplied to the OAuth client registry,
    FrameworkIntegration.set_state_data writes the entire state blob under _state_{app}_{state}, and
    get_state_data ignores the caller's session altogether. This issue has been patched in version 1.6.6.
