CVE-2026-46560 (GCVE-0-2026-46560)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-10-30 18:36 – Updated: 2026-10-30 18:36

Title

OpenAM Authentication Bypass via RADIUS Spoofing

Summary

Open Access Management (OpenAM) is an access management solution. Prior to 16.1.1, the `RADIUS` authentication module opens an unconnected datagram socket and trusts the first UDP datagram received on the client source port. The receive path does not verify the source IP and port, match the response identifier to the outstanding request, or verify the RFC 2865 `Response Authenticator`; the RFC 2869 `Message-Authenticator` is neither sent nor required. Any non-Reject/non-Challenge packet is treated as success. On a deployment with a `RADIUS` module instance enabled on a login chain, an unauthenticated network attacker can race the real server on-path or spray forged `Access-Accept` packets off-path and obtain a session for any `RADIUS`-mapped username without knowing the shared secret. Unlike CVE-2024-3596, exploitation requires no MD5 chosen-prefix forgery because no response authenticator is checked. The resulting session carries the impersonated principal's privileges. This issue is fixed in version 16.1.1.

Summary

OpenAM: Unauthenticated Authentication Bypass via RADIUS Spoofing

Details

Summary

Description

An Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature (CWE-347) issue in OpenAM's RADIUS authentication module allows an unauthenticated network attacker to spoof an Access-Accept response and obtain an OpenAM session for any RADIUS username, without knowing the configured shared secret. This affects OpenAM Community Edition through version 16.0.6 and was patched in version 16.1.1.

The RADIUS client opens an unconnected datagram socket and treats the first UDP datagram delivered to its source port as authoritative. The receive path does not check the source IP/port, does not match the response identifier to the outstanding request, and does not verify the Response Authenticator (RFC 2865 §3); the RFC 2869 Message-Authenticator is neither sent nor required. Any non-Reject/non-Challenge packet is treated as success, so a forged Access-Accept is accepted as a valid login.

Impact

OpenAM Community Edition deployments through version 16.0.6 where an administrator has enabled a RADIUS module instance on a login chain are potentially affected. An attacker either races the real server on-path, or off-path sprays forged Access-Accept packets at the OpenAM client port. Because the client performs no verification of the response authenticator, no MD5 chosen-prefix forgery is required, which is is materially stronger than the BlastRADIUS family (CVE-2024-3596), in which an attacker must still forge a valid authenticator.

Successful exploitation yields pre-authentication impersonation of any RADIUS-mapped user in any affected realm. The resulting session is indistinguishable from a legitimate RADIUS login and carries the named principal's privileges.

Patch

This has been patched in OpenAM Community Edition version 16.1.1. Users are encouraged to update to the latest release.

Severity

7.5 (High)

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
