   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2016-044
   * Project: OAuth2 Client [1]     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2016-August-10
   * Security risk: 10/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:Complex/A:None/CI:None/II:None/E:Proof/TD:All [2]
   * Vulnerability: Cross Site Request Forgery

-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------

This module provides an OAuth2 client.

The module does not check the validity of the state parameter, during
server-side flow, before getting a token. This may allow a malicious user to
feed a fake access_token to another user, and subsequently provide him fake
data from the server. This page explains it in more details:
