Twitter Kit for iOS versions 3.0 to 3.2.1 is vulnerable to a callback verification flaw in the ...

5.4 Medium

CVE-2017-0911 is a medium vulnerability (CVSS 5.4) in Twitter Kit For Ios, published February 9, 2018. No source lists public exploit code. EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.50%, the 42nd percentile. No source names a fixed version.

Twitter Kit for iOS versions 3.0 to 3.2.1 is vulnerable to a callback verification flaw in the "Login with Twitter" component allowing an attacker to provide alternate credentials. In the final step of "Login with Twitter" authentication information is passed back to the application using the registered custom URL scheme (typically twitterkit-<consumer-key>) on iOS. Because the callback handler did not verify the authenticity of the response, this step is vulnerable to forgery, potentially allowing attacker to associate a Twitter account with a third-party service.
