CVE-2026-108167: auth0-ai-python FGA retriever improper access control in document filtering

CVE-2026-108167 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-10

The auth0-ai-python library's FGA retriever component fails to properly enforce authorization rules when filtering documents for retrieval-augmented generation. This allows documents that should be denied by Auth0's Fine-Grained Authorization service to be included in the AI model's context, potentially exposing sensitive information in generated responses.

Vendors: Auth0.

Technical details

The FGA retriever does not distinguish between authorization checks for different users, relations, or conditions during document filtering, causing improperly authorized documents to be passed to the language model. The vulnerability is an access control bypass in the document retrieval pipeline before model context assembly. No authentication or network-level attack is required; an attacker with access to the application can trigger the retrieval process to receive unauthorized document content.
