Summary

Dapr Sentry's OIDC discovery endpoint derives the issuer and jwks_uri of the /.well-known/openid-configuration document from the request Host, honoring an attacker-controlled X-Forwarded-Host header without validation when no allowed-hosts list is configured (the default), and serves the document with a one-hour public cache lifetime. A remote unauthenticated attacker can poison the discovery document so relying parties performing dynamic (unpinned) discovery fetch the JWKS from an attacker-controlled server, causing attacker-signed JWTs to be accepted. Exploitation requires the OIDC server enabled without a configured jwt-issuer or oidc-allowed-hosts.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
