CVE-2026-65635 Details
Description
Improper Isolation or Compartmentalization vulnerability in malach-it boruta (Elixir.Boruta.Openid module) allows attackers to register OpenID Connect clients with administrative privileges through the dynamic client registration entry point. Boruta.Openid.register_client/3 forwards caller-supplied registration parameters to the administrative client creation path without a public/admin field-level allowlist, so an unauthenticated registrant can set security-sensitive attributes including supported grant types, authorized scopes, PKCE enforcement, public refresh and revocation behavior, token lifetimes, and signing settings. The library does not distinguish between metadata a public registrant is allowed to set and administrative controls that should require operator approval. This vulnerability is associated with program files lib/boruta/openid.ex and program routines 'Elixir.Boruta.Openid':register_client/3, 'Elixir.Boruta.Openid':parse_registration_params/2. This issue affects boruta from 2.3.0 before 2.3.7.
A vulnerability in the Malach-it Boruta library, specifically within the Elixir.Boruta.Openid module, allows for the improper registration of OpenID Connect clients with administrative privileges. This issue arises in versions 2.3.0 prior to 2.3.7. The vulnerability is rooted in the dynamic client registration process, where the 'register_client/3' function forwards user-supplied registration parameters to the administrative client creation pathway without a proper allowlist to separate public and admin fields. As a result, an unauthenticated registrant can manipulate sensitive attributes such as grant types, scopes, PKCE enforcement, refresh and revocation behaviors, token lifetimes, and signing settings. The library fails to differentiate between metadata that public registrants can set and administrative controls that require operator approval.
Users can update to Boruta version 2.3.7, which addresses this vulnerability by implementing a proper allowlist for registration parameters. If dynamic client registration must remain available to untrusted callers, it is recommended to disable the administrative attributes in the registration process or restrict the registration route to authenticated administrators.
