{"id":"GHSA-69j4-qvqr-hpw3","summary":"OpenAM Authenticated RCE via Groovy Sandbox Escape","details":"## Summary\n\n**Description**\n\nA Protection Mechanism Failure (CWE-693) in OpenAM's server-side scripting sandbox allows an authenticated script author execute operating-system commands from the OpenAM JVM with the default class allow and deny lists. This impacts OpenAM Community Edition through version 16.0.6. This issue was patched in version 16.1.1.\n\n## Impact\nAn authenticated user (for example, a realm admin) who can create or edit server-side scripts for an executed context can run OS commands as the OpenAM application server admin. For a sub-realm `RealmAdmin`, this crosses the documented boundary from realm-scoped administration to JVM/host execution, effectively compromising the whole OpenAM process and every realm it serves. The sandbox is the only code-level defense between a realm script author and arbitrary JVM/OS execution.\n\n## Patch\nThis has been patched in OpenAM Community Edition version 16.1.1. Users are encouraged to update to the latest release.","aliases":["CVE-2026-47424"],"modified":"2026-06-29T18:11:31.400073Z","published":"2026-06-29T17:43:29Z","database_specific":{"github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-06-29T17:43:29Z","nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-693"],"severity":"HIGH"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/OpenIdentityPlatform/OpenAM/security/advisories/GHSA-69j4-qvqr-hpw3"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/OpenIdentityPlatform/OpenAM"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"org.openidentityplatform.openam:openam-scripting","ecosystem":"Maven","purl":"pkg:maven/org.openidentityplatform.openam/openam-scripting"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"16.1.1"}]}],"versions":["14.5.2","14.5.3","14.5.4","14.6.1","14.6.2","14.6.3","14.6.4","14.6.5","14.6.6","14.7.0","14.7.1","14.7.2","14.7.3","14.7.4","14.8.1","14.8.2","14.8.3","14.8.4","15.0.0","15.0.1","15.0.2","15.0.3","15.0.4","15.1.0","15.1.1","15.1.2","15.1.3","15.1.4","15.1.5","15.1.6","15.2.0","15.2.1","15.2.2","16.0.1","16.0.2","16.0.3","16.0.4","16.0.5","16.0.6","16.1.0"],"database_specific":{"last_known_affected_version_range":"\u003c= 16.0.6","source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/06/GHSA-69j4-qvqr-hpw3/GHSA-69j4-qvqr-hpw3.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]}
