The error is a big hint

The user is from a foreign realm, defaultWIMFileBasedRealm, and this foreign realm is not trusted.

I found the answer in the IBM docs:

Go to the Websphere Application Server administration console and under Security > Global security > Federated repositories make sure that both the realms mentioned in the error are listed as trusted.

This is either a configuration error, or you are not supposed to login the way you are. If you have access to the administration console, the fix is just to add defaultWIMFileBasedRealm to the trusted realms. Otherwise you may need to log on some other way.
