Technical details
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in the OpenAM `/sessionservice` endpoint. The root cause is insufficient validation of URLs provided by authenticated users when registering for session event notifications. An attacker with valid credentials can register a malicious URL, causing the OpenAM server to initiate outbound requests to arbitrary destinations. This can be leveraged to perform internal port scanning, interact with internal services, or leak session-related data. The vulnerability is addressed in version 16.1.1.
