CVE-2026-14614: Vulnerability in Red Hat Red Hat Build of Keycloak
A vulnerability exists in the ClientResource component of Red Hat Build of Keycloak when Fine-Grained Admin Permissions (FGAP) v2 is enabled. This flaw allows delegated administrators with limited client control to attach or remove hidden client scopes they are not authorized to manage. Consequently, unauthorized data or permissions could be injected into security tokens issued to end-users, potentially leading to elevated access in other applications. The CVSS score is 5.4, indicating a medium severity level. No specific affected versions or patch information are provided in the advisory.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-14614 is a medium severity vulnerability in Red Hat Build of Keycloak's ClientResource component under Fine-Grained Admin Permissions v2. It permits delegated administrators, who should have restricted control, to manipulate hidden client scopes beyond their authorization. This manipulation can result in unauthorized data or permissions being embedded in security tokens, potentially causing downstream applications to grant higher access levels than intended. The vulnerability requires network access with low complexity and privileges, and does not require user interaction. No vendor advisory details on patch availability or affected versions are provided.
Potential Impact
An attacker with delegated administrator privileges can escalate their effective permissions by injecting unauthorized client scopes into security tokens. This may lead to other applications trusting these tokens and granting elevated access, compromising confidentiality and integrity of user sessions. The impact is limited to confidentiality and integrity with no availability impact. The vulnerability does not require user interaction and can be exploited remotely with low complexity.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the Red Hat advisory at https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-14614 for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict delegated administrator privileges to the minimum necessary and monitor for unusual client scope modifications if possible.
