Summary

The @backstage/plugin-auth-backend-module-oidc-provider package before version 0.4.20 has improper authentication in the OIDC provider. Deployments using OIDC email-based identity resolution with a provider that permits unverified email addresses may allow an authenticated provider user to assume another catalog identity.

Risk Assessment

An attacker could gain access and permissions associated with another user, potentially leading to unauthorized access to resources. No direct availability impact is demonstrated.

Recommendation

Update @backstage/plugin-auth-backend-module-oidc-provider to version 0.4.20 or later. Ensure the OIDC provider requires verified email addresses.
