Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.4.13 Security Update
Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.4.13 is a standalone server, based on the Keycloak project, that provides authentication and standards-based single sign-on capabilities for web and mobile applications. Security fixes: * Information disclosure via CORS header injection due to unvalidated JWT azp claim (CVE-2026-37977) * Server-Side Request Forgery via OIDC token endpoint manipulation (CVE-2026-4874) * eclipse-vertx/vert.x:Denial of Service via TLS handshake with wildcard server name (CVE-2026-6860) * Improper Access Control on Keycloak Server when the account Account API feature is disabled (CVE-2026-7500) * Policy bypass during WebAuthn credential registration via client-side JavaScript manipulation (CVE-2026-8830) * Security flaw in org.keycloak/keycloak-services (CVE-2026-8922) * Information disclosure through arbitrary filesystem path probing (CVE-2026-9083) * Cross-site scripting (XSS) via case-insensitive URI validation bypass (CVE-2026-9086) * Cross-Session Email Verification Proof Not Bound to Upstream Identity in First-Broker-Login (CVE-2026-9087) * Information disclosure due to user profile permission bypass (CVE-2026-9088) * Group-Admin Escalation to Realm-Admin (CVE-2026-9099) * Privilege escalation due to oversized subject_token JWT (CVE-2026-9704) * Attacker can re-enable and take over disabled clients via Registration Access Token (CVE-2026-9705) * Organization Data Leak After Feature Disabled in Keycloak (CVE-2026-9791) * Security restriction bypass allows unauthorized ROPC token acquisition (CVE-2026-9792) * Information disclosure via SAML ECP endpoint (CVE-2026-9794) * Privilege escalation via improper scope mapping enforcement (CVE-2026-9795) * Unauthorized access to resources via UMA permission ticket bypass (CVE-2026-9799) * Authorization bypass via incorrect URI comparison (CVE-2026-9800) * Denial of Service via malformed LDAP password policy response (CVE-2026-9801) * Unauthorized account access via replayed refresh tokens after cluster restart (CVE-2026-9802) * Denial of Service via malformed Authorization header (CVE-2026-9803)
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This advisory covers a security update for Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.4.13, a standalone authentication and single sign-on server. It addresses multiple vulnerabilities including information disclosure via CORS header injection (CVE-2026-37977), server-side request forgery via OIDC token endpoint manipulation (CVE-2026-4874), denial of service via TLS handshake issues (CVE-2026-6860), improper access control when the Account API is disabled (CVE-2026-7500), policy bypass during WebAuthn registration (CVE-2026-8830), various privilege escalations, authorization bypasses, and denial of service attacks. The update resolves at least 20 CVEs impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the Keycloak server. The CVSS vector for CVE-2026-4874 indicates network attack vector, high attack complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, and low confidentiality impact. The advisory is published by Red Hat Product Security under RHSA-2026:30049.
Potential Impact
The vulnerabilities collectively impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.4.13 server. They enable attackers to perform information disclosure, privilege escalation, unauthorized access to resources, denial of service, and bypass of security policies. Specific impacts include leakage of sensitive information via CORS headers, token endpoint manipulation leading to server-side request forgery, denial of service through malformed TLS handshakes or LDAP responses, privilege escalation from group-admin to realm-admin, and unauthorized account access via replayed tokens. These flaws could undermine authentication and authorization mechanisms critical to secure single sign-on operations.
Mitigation Recommendations
Red Hat has released updated packages for Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.4.13 that address these vulnerabilities. Users should apply the security update available from the Red Hat Customer Portal as soon as possible. Before updating, it is recommended to back up existing installations, including applications, configuration files, and databases. No alternative mitigations or workarounds are specified in the advisory. Patch status is confirmed by the vendor advisory indicating an official fix is available.
