Google OAuth Vulnerability Exposes Millions via Failed Startup Domains

New research has pulled back the curtain on a "deficiency" in Google's "Sign in with Google" authentication flow that exploits a quirk in domain ownership to gain access to sensitive data.

GHSA-237r-r8m4-4q88: Guzzle OAuth Subscriber has insufficient nonce entropy

### Impact Nonce generation does not use sufficient entropy nor a cryptographically secure pseudorandom source (https://github.com/guzzle/oauth-subscriber/blob/0.8.0/src/Oauth1.php#L192). This can leave servers vulnerable to replay attacks when TLS is not used. ### Patches Upgrade to version 0.8.1 or higher. ### Workarounds No. ### References Issue is similar to https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-22376.

GHSA-3q97-vjpp-c8rp: Socialstream has a Potential Account Takeover Vulnerability in Social Account Linking Due to Missing User Consent After OAuth Callback

Developers should ensure that users explicitly confirm account linking and avoid configurations that skip critical security checks. ## Resolution Socialstream v6.2 introduces a new custom route that requires a user to "Confirm" or "Deny" a request to link a social account.
