Description

Impact

Changes to the OIDC claims of a user after initial login are not reflected in policy evaluation when using allowed_idp_claims as part of policy. If using allowed_idp_claims and a user's claims are changed, Pomerium can make incorrect authorization decisions.

  • Clear data on databroker service by clearing redis or restarting the in-memory databroker to force claims to be updated

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
