Cvss 3 Severity Score

7.5 · High

Score breakdown

jwt-go before 4.0.0-preview1 allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions in situations with []string{} for m["aud"] (which is allowed by the specification). Because the type assertion fails, "" is the value of aud. This is a security problem if the JWT token is presented to a service that lacks its own audience check.

as of 2020-10-02, the proposed patches have not been accepted into the upstream tree. juju-core doesn't use jwt-go in a way that exposes the vulnerability
