Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Affected versions of social-auth-core before 6.2.0 have an OpenID Connect nonce that is stored in a shared table rather than bound to the browser session, so the ID token nonce check does not confirm the login was started by the same browser. An attacker who obtains a victim's unused authorization code (for example from a leaked callback URL) could redeem it in their own browser and be logged in as the victim, with default settings where PKCE is off. Upgrade social-auth-core to 6.2.0 or later.
