info:
  name: Strapi Versions <=4.5.6 - Authentication Bypass
  author: iamnoooob,rootxharsh,pdresearch
  severity: high
  description: |
    Strapi through 4.5.5 does not verify the access or ID tokens issued during the OAuth flow when the AWS Cognito login provider is used for authentication. A remote attacker could forge an ID token that is signed using the 'None' type algorithm to bypass authentication and impersonate any user that use AWS Cognito for authentication.
