CVE-2026-105114: OpenAM reflected XSS in OAuth2 authorization error page

CVE-2026-105114 · Severity: medium · CVSS 6.1 · Published 2026-10-03

OpenAM is an identity and access management platform that handles OAuth2 authentication for applications. A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the OAuth2 error page allows attackers to inject malicious scripts by sending victims a crafted link. If a victim visits the link while logged in, the attacker can steal session tokens, manipulate the page, or redirect users to phishing sites.

Technologies: Open Identity Platform OpenAM. Vendors: Open Identity Platform.

Quick answers

Is CVE-2026-105114 exploited in the wild?
No. Junglewise Threat Intelligence has no report of CVE-2026-105114 being exploited in the wild.
How severe is CVE-2026-105114?
Medium severity, with a CVSS score of 6.1, published 3 October 2026.
Which products and versions are affected?
Open Identity Platform OpenAM before 16.1.3.
Is there a fix for CVE-2026-105114?
Yes: fixed in 16.1.3. Until then: Deploy a Content-Security-Policy header that disallows inline scripts to prevent payload execution even if reflection is not blocked. Restrict access to /oauth2/authorize at the reverse proxy to networks that actually need it, or apply a web application firewall rule rejecting requests with < or > characters in the query string. Junglewise finds every place you run it, drafts the upgrade and applies it once you approve.
How is CVE-2026-105114 attacked?
It is attacked over the network.
Am I affected by CVE-2026-105114?
Check whether you run Open Identity Platform OpenAM at an affected version. Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.

How to fix

  • Fixed in: 16.1.3

Deploy a Content-Security-Policy header that disallows inline scripts to prevent payload execution even if reflection is not blocked. Restrict access to /oauth2/authorize at the reverse proxy to networks that actually need it, or apply a web application firewall rule rejecting requests with < or > characters in the query string.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a reflected XSS (CWE-79) in the OAuth2 /authorize endpoint's error page, where user-supplied parameters are inserted into the DOM without HTML encoding. An unauthenticated attacker can craft a malicious link with repeated or specially-crafted parameters that break out of the HTML context and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the OpenAM origin. The attacker requires user interaction (victim clicking a link) but no special privileges or client configuration beyond a registered OAuth2 client, which is standard for deployments using OAuth2.
