SecurityAiven for Apache Kafka®Require issuer and audience for Kafka OIDC authentication
Aiven for Apache Kafka® now requires an expected issuer and audience when you create or update a service that uses OAuth 2.0/OIDC authentication. This change helps address CVE-2026-110952.
If your existing service uses OAuth 2.0/OIDC authentication without an expected issuer or audience, you must provide the missing values when you next update the service configuration. Otherwise, the update is rejected.
For more information, see Enable OAuth 2.0/OIDC authentication for Apache Kafka®.

You can now restrict service users to specific logical databases in Aiven for Valkey™ 9.1 and later, giving you more control over data access.
