CVE-2026-33496: Ory Oathkeeper has an authentication bypass by cache key confusion
Ory Oathkeeper is vulnerable to authentication bypass due to cache key confusion. The oauth2_introspection authenticator cache does not distinguish tokens that were validated with different introspection URLs. An attacker can therefore legitimately use a token to prime the cache, and subsequently use the same token for rules that use a different introspection server.
