4DescriptionNVD
A flaw was found in the SAML protocol implementation of Keycloak, an open-source identity and access management solution. The issue occurs when Keycloak handles SAML authentication requests using the HTTP-Redirect binding. If a client is configured with a wildcard redirect URL, an attacker can craft a request that includes malicious parameters. When a user authenticates, Keycloak appends its legitimate response to the attacker's parameters. This can cause some service providers to process the attacker's data instead of the real login information, potentially leading to a user being logged into the wrong account.
AnalysisAI
SAML HTTP-Redirect binding in Keycloak allows network-based attackers to inject malicious parameters into authentication requests targeting clients configured with wildcard redirect URLs. When a victim user completes authentication, Keycloak appends its legitimate SAML response to the attacker-controlled URL parameters, which can cause susceptible service providers to process the attacker's data instead of the real login assertion - potentially resulting in the victim being logged into the wrong account. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the targeted Keycloak client be configured with a wildcard redirect URL rather than a strict, exact-match redirect URI - this is the critical enabling configuration condition. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N scores 3.4 (Low), which aligns with the realistic threat model. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker identifies a Keycloak-protected service provider whose SAML client is configured with a wildcard redirect URL. The attacker crafts a SAML HTTP-Redirect authentication initiation URL containing injected malicious parameters and delivers it to a victim user (e.g., via phishing or a malicious link). … |
| Remediation | No specific patched version is confirmed from the available input data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
