It was found that when authorizing an application against an OAuth 2 API provider, Spring Social is vulnerable to a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attack. The attack involves a malicious user beginning an OAuth 2 authorization flow using a fake account with an OAuth 2 API provider, but completing it by tricking the victim into visiting the callback request in their browser. As a consequence, the attacker will have access to the victim's account on the vulnerable site by way of the fake provider account.
