Summary

OpenAM before 16.1.4 contains a stored cross-site scripting flaw in the OAuth 2.0 consent page, where the display name is not encoded. A privileged attacker can place markup in a user's display name, which runs as script when the victim opens the consent page. The script can steal the OpenAM session cookie and impersonate the user.
