CVE-2019-11269: Open Redirector in spring-security-oauth2

Spring Security OAuth versions 2.3 prior to 2.3.6, 2.2 prior to 2.2.5, 2.1 prior to 2.1.5, and 2.0 prior to 2.0.18, as well as older unsupported versions could be susceptible to an open redirector attack that can leak an authorization code. A malicious user or attacker can craft a request to the authorization endpoint using the authorization code grant type, and specify a manipulated redirection URI via the redirect_uri parameter. This can cause the authorization server to redirect the resource owner user-agent to a URI under the control of the attacker with the leaked authorization code.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw can make a vulnerable Spring Security OAuth authorization server send a user back to an attacker-controlled address and expose an authorization code. That code may help an attacker access protected resources if other controls do not stop reuse. Exposure is most likely in applications running Spring Security OAuth 2.3 before 2.3.6, 2.2 before 2.2.5, 2.1 before 2.1.5, 2.0 before 2.0.18, or older unsupported versions. Prioritize internet-facing authorization servers and high-value applications. This is not an availability issue, but leaked authorization codes can affect account access and trust in authentication flows. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Spring Security OAuth to a fixed branch version or later.; Replace older unsupported Spring Security OAuth versions where upgrade paths are unavailable.; Review vendor advisories for downstream products embedding vulnerable Spring components..
