CVE-2023-48707 Description

CodeIgniter Shield is an authentication and authorization provider for CodeIgniter 4.

If a malicious person somehow had access to the data in the database, they could use the key and secretKey for HMAC SHA256 authentication to send requests impersonating that corresponding user. This issue has been addressed in version 1.0.0-beta.8. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
