Description

<Issue Description> Spring Security OAuth versions 2.5.x prior to 2.5.2 and older unsupported versions are susceptible to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack via the initiation of the Authorization Request in an OAuth 2.0 Client application. A malicious user or attacker can send multiple requests initiating the Authorization Request for the Authorization Code Grant, which has the potential of exhausting system resources using a single session. This vulnerability exposes OAuth 2.0 Client applications only.

Affected configurations

• pivotal spring security oauth (>= 2.4.0 < 2.4.2) • pivotal spring security oauth (>= 2.5.0 < 2.5.2) • oracle communications design studio 7.4.2
