CVE-2024-42476 - Nim OAuth Library CSRF Vulnerability
CVE ID : CVE-2024-42476 Published : Aug. 15, 2024, 7:15 p.m. | 1 hour, 29 minutes ago Description : In the OAuth library for nim prior to version 0.11, the Authorization Code grant and Implicit grant both rely on the `state` parameter to prevent cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks where a resource owner might have their session associated with protected resources belonging to an attacker. When this project is compiled with certain compiler flags set, it is possible that the `state` parameter will not be checked at all, creating a CSRF vulnerability. Version 0.11 checks the `state` parameter using a regular `if` statement or `doAssert` instead of relying on a plain `assert`. `doAssert` will achieve the desired behavior even if `-d:danger` or `--assertions:off` is set. Severity: 6.5 | MEDIUM Visit the link for more details, such as CVSS details, affected products, timeline, and more...
