Ash Authentication Phoenix

Use of HTTP Request With Sensitive Query String vulnerability in team-alembic AshAuthenticationPhoenix allows someone able to read access logs, proxy logs or browser history to recover a single-use sign-in token and authenticate as its owner. After a successful password sign-in, AshAuthentication.Phoenix.Components.Password.SignInForm builds the sign_in_with_token path with the freshly issued user.__metadata__.token as a query parameter and redirects the browser to it with a GET. The token therefore travels in the request line, where web servers, reverse proxies, request telemetry and the browser's own history record it, all of which outlive the request and are ordinarily less protected than session storage. The redirect destination is restricted to a local path, so this is not an open redirect; the exposure is the retention of a live credential. This issue affects ash_authentication_phoenix: from 1.7.0 before 2.17.4 and from 3.0.0-rc.0 before 3.0.0-rc.11; ash_authentication: from 3.10.5 before 4.15.0 and from 5.0.0-rc.0 before 5.0.0-rc.14.

Insufficient Session Expiration vulnerability in team-alembic ash_authentication_phoenix allows a session token captured before sign-out to remain usable afterwards. The default sign_out/2 that AshAuthentication.Phoenix.Controller injects into an application's auth controller only calls Plug.Conn.clear_session/1. It never revokes the stored session or bearer tokens, so a token obtained before sign-out, through script injection, interception or device theft, keeps authenticating until its own expiry. Changing the password still revokes it. This issue affects ash_authentication_phoenix: from 0.1.0 before 2.10.0.
