AI-suggested

This vulnerability is fixed in OpenAM version 16.1.1. Users should upgrade to version 16.1.1 or later to remediate this issue. No other mitigation or temporary workaround is indicated by the vendor advisory.

Description

Open Access Management (OpenAM) is an access management solution. Prior to 16.1.1, the OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect authorization endpoint does not sufficiently encode user-supplied parameters before FormPostResponse.ftl and checkSession.ftl render them into HTML for the form_post response mode. An unauthenticated attacker can induce a user to open a crafted authorization request and execute script in the OpenAM origin. This issue is fixed in version 16.1.1.
