A deployment is vulnerable when the host application exposes Boruta.Openid.register_client/3 on a network endpoint without requiring a trusted initial access token and without a strict server-side allowlist that prevents caller-supplied administrative attributes from reaching the underlying changeset. The standard controller generator does not install a dynamic client registration route, so deployments that never call Boruta.Openid.register_client/3 from a public endpoint are not exploitable.
