  The embedded CICS TS Liberty JVM server requires an upgrade of
  WebSphere Liberty to version 25.0.0.6.
  

Problem conclusion

• CICS TS has been updated to use a Liberty JVM server that is
  based on WebSphere Liberty version 25.0.0.6.
  
  IBM is required to provide you with certain notices and other
  information regarding third party components, included by this
  APAR and obtained as part of IBM WebSphere Liberty 25.0.0.6.
  
  This information is available at:
  https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7247838
  
  Note, CICS 6.3 became generally available with Liberty 25.0.0.6.
  At 6.3 this APAR refreshes Liberty to include the fix for
  https://github.com/OpenLiberty/open-liberty/issues/32394
  
  When enabling a new Liberty JVM server with feature
  cicsts:security-1.0 and no ltpa.keys file, you may now see a
  CWWKS0005E in messages.log reporting "No available UserRegistry
  service" and FFDCs are captured. In the FFDCs you will see:
  "com.ibm.websphere.security.WSSecurityException:
  getActiveUserRegistry failed due to an internal error:
  CWWKS0005E: A configuration exception has occurred. No available
  UserRegistry service." and
  "com.ibm.websphere.security.WSSecurityException: getUserRegistry
  for realm null failed due to an internal error:
  getActiveUserRegistry failed due to an internal error:
  CWWKS0005E: A configuration exception has occurred. No available
  UserRegistry service."
  This has no known impact on functionality and the ltpa.keys file
  will be created by Liberty. This issue is being actively worked
  on by the CICS and Liberty Development teams.
