CVE-2020-7692
google-oauth-client: missing PKCE support in accordance with the RFC for OAuth 2.0 for Native Apps can lead to improper authorization
Severity by source
Trivy's own label is CRITICAL. Rated critical by NVD. Rated lower by GHSA (high), Red Hat (high).
Description
PKCE support is not implemented in accordance with the RFC for OAuth 2.0 for Native Apps. Without the use of PKCE, the authorization code returned by an authorization server is not enough to guarantee that the client that issued the initial authorization request is the one that will be authorized. An attacker is able to obtain the authorization code using a malicious app on the client-side and use it to gain authorization to the protected resource. This affects the package com.google.oauth-client:google-oauth-client before 1.31.0.
