Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Authlib versions before 1.6.11 are vulnerable to cross-site request forgery when the OAuth client is configured with a cache to store authorization state. The cache-based flow does not tie the callback to the client that started the login, so an attacker can start an authorization flow, send the resulting callback URL to a victim, and get the victim to complete it, linking the attacker's account to the victim's. Upgrade to Authlib 1.6.11 or later.
