Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for python-oauthlib.

CVE-2026-49272[0]:
| OAuthLib is an implementation of the OAuth request-signing logic for
| Python 3.6+. From 3.3.0 until 4.0.1, OAuthLib's RFC 8628 device
| workflow does not require DeviceCodeGrant.validate_token_request to
| check that the device_code parameter is present and valid. A caller
| whose client request is accepted by the configured validator and who
| knows a valid client ID enabled for the device workflow can submit a
| missing or bogus device code to the token endpoint and obtain a
| bearer token without completing device authorization. This issue is
| fixed in version 4.0.1.
