About Sailpoint Identityiq
CVE-2026-12341 affects Sailpoint Identityiq, a product from Sailpoint. Before acting, confirm where Sailpoint Identityiq runs in your estate, who owns it and whether it is reachable from the internet, because exposure decides real risk more than the score alone.
What the flaw is
In plain terms: This vulnerability impacts all versions of IdentityIQ and allows an unauthenticated attacker unauthorized access to protected APIs and data due to improper validation of OAuth bearer tokens.
The weakness class is Improper Authentication. The software does not properly prove who a user is.
Based on its CVSS vector, the flaw can be reached over the network, needs no login, and relies on a user taking an action. Apply the vendor fix and confirm exposure on internet facing and business critical assets first.
