Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Versions of the openam-federation-library Maven package before 16.1.1 are affected. Without authentication, an attacker can send a crafted request to certain federation endpoints that reflects script into the page, which runs in the OpenAM origin when a victim opens it, but only under a non-default clustered configuration. Upgrade to openam-federation-library 16.1.1 or later. The source gives few details on the exact trigger and no workaround is listed.
