Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server and OIDC * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The OIDC RP cannot override the realm * * name that is specified in the user's * * idToken * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Install a fix pack or interim fix that * * includes this APAR. * **************************************************************** When using the WebSphere traditional OIDC RP, there is no way for a server administrator to override the realm name that is included in the user's idToken. When using the WebSphere Liberty OIDC RP, you can do this using the realmName property of the openidConnectClient feature.
Problem conclusion
The OIDC RP TAI is updated to allow an administrator to override the realm name that is provided in the user's idToken. The following property is added to the OIDC RP TAI: provider_<id>.useRealm Specifies the realm name to be used for each request to this provider. This property overrides both the value for the realm name in the IDToken and the value for the provider_<id>.defaultRealmName property. This property has no default. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.18 and 9.0.5.3.
