When updating authentication-related dependencies or adding new authentication capabilities (like SAML, OAuth, etc.), thoroughly test all authentication flows to prevent security vulnerabilities. Authentication components often have complex interdependencies that can lead to unexpected failures when versions change.
When updating authentication-related dependencies or adding new authentication capabilities (like SAML, OAuth, etc.), thoroughly test all authentication flows to prevent security vulnerabilities. Authentication components often have complex interdependencies that can lead to unexpected failures when versions change.
Example:
# When updating authentication libraries like this:
dependencies = [
"dj-rest-auth[with_social,jwt] (==7.0.1)",
"django-allauth[saml] (>=65.8.0,<66.0.0)", # Updated with new SAML capability
]
Always:
This is critical for security as broken authentication can lead to unauthorized access or account takeovers.
