Flask-AppBuilder vulnerable to incorrect authentication when using auth type OpenID

Flask-AppBuilder (pip)

When Flask-AppBuilder is set to AUTH_TYPE AUTH_OID, allows an attacker to forge an HTTP request, that could deceive the backend into using any requested OpenID service. This vulnerability could grant an attacker unauthorised privilege access if a custom OpenID service is deployed by the attacker and accessible by the backend.

Fix it

pip install --upgrade "Flask-AppBuilder>=4.3.11"
