OESA-2025-2430 (CVE-2021-22573)

Vulnerability from osv_openeuler – Published: 2025-10-17 11:09 – Updated: 2026-08-06 11:09 – Source website

Summary

google-oauth-java-client security update

Details

Written by Google, the Google OAuth Client Library for Java is a powerful and easy-to-use Java library for the OAuth 1.0a and OAuth 2.0 authorization standards. The Google OAuth Client Library for Java is designed to work with any OAuth service on the web, not just with Google APIs. It is built on the Google HTTP Client Library for Java.

Security Fix(es):

The vulnerability is that IDToken verifier does not verify if token is properly signed. Signature verification makes sure that the token's payload comes from valid provider, not from someone else. An attacker can provide a compromised token with custom payload. The token will pass the validation on the client side. We recommend upgrading to version 1.33.3 or above(CVE-2021-22573)

Severity

7.3 (High)

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
