# CVE-2026-123545: OpenAM 14.5.1 before 16.1.4 CSRF in OAuth 2.0 Device Flow

Status: published. Published: 2026-11-08. Updated: 2026-11-10.

OpenAM from 14.5.1 before 16.1.4 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability in the OAuth 2.0 device authorization flow that allows attackers to approve device codes when consent is skipped for implied-consent clients. Attackers can start a device authorization and lure a logged-in user to a crafted page, obtaining access and ID tokens to call APIs as that user.
