With Client ID Metadata Documents enabled, resolve\\_client/3 in AshAuthentication.Oauth2Server.CIMD fetches the document for each new URL-shaped client\\_id and upserts a client row, with no cap on the number of rows, no expiry or garbage collection, and no length bound on the fetched fields; the document was also placed in CIMD.Cache before validation, so even rejected documents held cache memory until their TTL. An attacker serving valid documents at many distinct URLs creates one permanent client row per URL, each able to carry multi-megabyte strings, growing storage and memory without bound.\n\nThis issue affects ash\\_authentication\\_oauth2\\_server: from 0.3.0 before 0.3.1.\n\n## Configuration\n\nReachable only when the client resource has Client ID Metadata Documents enabled (cimd\\_enabled?: true) and the authorize endpoint is exposed.
