Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The openam-core Maven package, versions before 16.1.1, ships the iPlanetDirectoryPro SSO cookie without the HttpOnly flag by default. An attacker who can run cross-site scripting in the OpenAM origin, typically by getting a user to click a crafted link, could steal the session cookie and complete OAuth consent grants. Upgrade to version 16.1.1, which fixes the issue.
