| Description | In Eclipse Lyo versions 2.0.0 to 7.0.0, OAuth server authorization checks can be bypassed when the 2-legged auth is supported by the server. In those cases, application that based their authz filters upon Lyo-provided `AbstractAdapterCredentialsFilter`, are vulnerable. An attacked can create a provisional trusted client (valid use-case) but then it can be used as a trusted client immediately without requiring the administrator approval to clear the provisional status. The 3-legged path requiring user interaction is not vulnerable and rejects provisional clients. |
