CVE-2023-0582Network attack vector

Authenticated authorization bypass via path traversal

Published Mar 27, 2024 · Updated Apr 14, 2025

Path traversal in OpenAM before 7.3.0 allows remote authenticated users to bypass authorization and read or alter protected data. ForgeRock identifies insufficient pathname restriction but does not disclose the affected endpoint, code locus, or malformed-path handling. A valid low-privilege account and network access are required; successful requests can cross authorization boundaries without interrupting service.
