SCA: security update for org.openidentityplatform.openam:openam-oauth2 (GHSA-f2cx-463q-7m2c)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 444112

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 private_key_jwt
client authentication path uses ClientJwksResolverCache without reliably binding a cached jwks_uri
resolver and verified assertion to the expected clientID in ClientCredentialsReader. An attacker
controlling any registered client with published keys, including one obtained through open dynamic
registration when enabled, can authenticate as another client whose keys are exposed through jwks_uri and
mint tokens in that client's name across realms in the same OpenAM process. This issue is fixed in version
16.1.1. (CVE-2026-47426)

Solution

Update the org.openidentityplatform.openam:openam-oauth2 library and its related packages to version 16.1.1 or later.
