BotSharp through 5.2.0 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to forge bearer tokens using the hard-coded Jwt:Key in WebStarter appsettings.json. Attackers can sign tokens with the committed HMAC secret and fixed botsharp issuer and audience to impersonate any known user, including administrators, on Authorize-protected API routes.
