| medium | any | 2e40b412c844ecc4673c3fa3f72181f228bdbacd | PYSEC-2022-269: advisory OAuthLib is an implementation of the OAuth request-signing logic for Python 3.6+. In OAuthLib versions 3.1.1 until 3.2.1, an attacker providing malicious redirect uri can cause denial of service. An attacker can also leverage usage of `uri_validate` functions depending where it is used. OAuthLib applications using OAuth2.0 provider support or use directly `uri_validate` are affected by this issue. Version 3.2.1 contains a patch. There are no known workarounds. | fixed | osv:PYSEC-2022-269 |

curl https://depscope.dev/api/bugs/pypi/oauthlib| medium | 3.1.1 | 3.2.2 | OAuthLib vulnerable to DoS when attacker provides malicious IPV6 URI ### Impact
- Attacker providing malicious redirect uri can cause DoS to oauthlib's web application.
- Attacker can also leverage usage of `uri_validate` functions depending where it is used.
_What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?_
Oauthlib applications using OAuth2.0 provider support or use directly `uri_validate` function.
### Patches
_Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_
Issue fixed in 3.2.2 release.
### Workarounds
_Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_
The `redirect_uri` can be verified in web toolkit (i.e `bottle-oauthlib`, `django-oauth-toolkit`, ...) before oauthlib is called. A sample check if `:` is present to reject the request can prevent the DoS, assuming no port or IPv6 is fundamentally required.
