Okta Access Gateway: protection mechanism failure
Fix: upgrade to 2026.9.1 or later
The Okta Access Gateway does not apply its Lua directive restriction to the application-level custom configuration field. The field is interpolated directly into the nginx server block without inspection, resulting in execution of injected directives.
