Critical Vulnerabilities Patched in OpenAM with Release of Version 16.1.2
Multiple serious vulnerabilities have been disclosed in OpenAM, including remote code execution flaws that require no authentication. The Open Identity Platform development team released OpenAM 16.1.2 on July 20, 2026, addressing a total of 18 issues that encompass both native vulnerabilities and those in third-party dependencies. CVE-2026-62379 allows arbitrary Java classes specified in XML to be loaded and instantiated without validation, enabling unauthenticated remote code execution. CVE-2026-62263 stems from improper deserialization filtering in Java, similarly permitting unauthenticated code execution. The update also resolves an XSS vulnerability (CVE-2026-62280) on the authorization consent page and fixes issues in components such as Node.js, js-yaml, and websocket-driver. CVSS scores rate the two primary flaws as critical at 9.8 and 9.2 respectively.
