Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in ash-project ash_authentication_oauth2_server allows an attacker who controls a client metadata URL and its DNS to make the server connect to internal or loopback addresses.
public_ip?/1 in AshAuthentication.Oauth2Server.CIMD.ReqFetcher enforces the outbound policy for CIMD metadata fetches. It classified several address forms as publicly routable that are not: IPv4-compatible ::/96 (for example ::127.0.0.1), SIIT IPv4-translated ::ffff:0:0:0/96, and deprecated site-local fec0::/10. A returned AAAA record in one of these ranges passed the policy, so a fetch pinned to that address reached space the policy was meant to block.
This issue affects ash_authentication_oauth2_server: from 0.3.0 before 0.3.1.
Reachable only when Client ID Metadata Documents are enabled (cimd_enabled?: true), so the authorize endpoint fetches attacker-suppliable metadata URLs, and an internal or loopback target resolves to one of the affected IPv6 address forms.
