SCA: security update for org.openidentityplatform.openam:openam-federation-library (GHSA-p462-xxwx-pqf4)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443884

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Open Access Management (OpenAM) is an access management solution. Prior to 16.1.1, the Liberty Web
Services SOAP receiver permits unauthenticated remote requests to write persistent entries through
SOAPReceiver and DiscoveryService into a user's Liberty Discovery store and the shared root-realm
Discovery branch. The server-side handlers bypass requester LDAP and identity ACLs, and the global path
uses an internal administrative token. Deployments that consume Liberty discovery data can subsequently
use manipulated service-routing or security-mechanism records. This issue is fixed in version 16.1.1.
(CVE-2026-45052)

Solution

Update the org.openidentityplatform.openam:openam-federation-library library and its related packages to version 16.1.1 or later.
