Summary
django-allauth's Okta and NetIQ implementations used a mutable identifier for authorization decisions
Details

An issue was discovered in allauth-django before 65.13.0. Both Okta and NetIQ were using preferred_username as the identifier for third-party provider accounts. That value may be mutable and should therefore be avoided for authorization decisions. The providers are now using sub instead.

Severity ?
5.4 (Medium)
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N
