What it is

From the CVE record

Open Access Management (OpenAM) is an access management solution. Prior to 16.1.1, SessionRequestHandler in the session management endpoint does not enforce ownership or privilege checks when a low-privileged authenticated user queries session information in deployments using stateful session storage. A requester who knows a target identity identifier can retrieve another user's active session credentials, including credentials for a more privileged account, and use them to hijack that session. This issue is fixed in version 16.1.1.
