Description

Cloud Foundry Foundation UAA, versions 4.12.X and 4.13.X, introduced a feature which could allow privilege escalation across identity zones for clients performing offline validation. A zone administrator could configure their zone to issue tokens which impersonate another zone, granting up to admin privileges in the impersonated zone for clients performing offline token validation.

How to fix

Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.
