| Impact | While the CVSS score of 5.3 appears moderate, the attack vector (network-accessible), integrity impact (high), and authentication bypass classification indicate meaningful real-world risk. The high attack complexity (AC:H) and required user interaction (UI:R) significantly reduce practical exploitability, suggesting this is not a trivial remote attack. The CVSS score reflects these constraints accurately. Exploitation requires an attacker to craft a specific request to delete legitimate single-use entries, then socially engineer or wait for a user to attempt legitimate token usage, making this a multi-step attack. The integrity impact (I:H) is significant because successful exploitation directly compromises account security through token replay. No KEV confirmation or public POC availability was noted in the provided intelligence, suggesting this remains a lower-priority patch candidate compared to unauthenticated, low-complexity vulnerabilities, though the authentication bypass classification warrants timely remediation. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker discovers or infers the namespace structure of Keycloak's SingleUseObjectProvider and crafts a request to delete password reset tokens for a target user. When the victim initiates a legitimate password reset workflow, they receive a reset link, but when they attempt to use it, the token has already been deleted by the attacker, forcing them to request a new one. Alternatively, the attacker could delete tokens preemptively and then exploit a race condition or timing window to insert their own password reset request, potentially gaining account access. The high attack complexity and required user interaction suggest this attack is not trivial but is feasible against high-value targets. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 02, 2026
Keycloak's SingleUseObjectProvider lacks proper type and namespace isolation, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers with user interaction to delete arbitrary single-use entries and replay consumed action tokens such as password reset links, leading to account compromise. The vulnerability requires user interaction (UI:R) and high attack complexity (AC:H), resulting in a CVSS score of 5.3. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Organizations running Red Hat Build of Keycloak should apply the vendor-released patch corresponding to their deployed version as soon as practical. Consult Red Hat's official security advisory at https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-4325 for specific patched version numbers and upgrade instructions. Interim mitigations should focus on restricting access to password reset and account recovery flows to authenticated, trusted networks if operationally feasible, and monitoring for unusual token consumption patterns. Organizations should prioritize patching authentication-critical systems first, given the potential for account compromise through token replay attacks.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Keycloak's SingleUseObjectProvider is a global key-value store mechanism responsible for managing single-use tokens and action tokens, including password reset and email verification links. The vulnerability stems from improper isolation of token types and namespaces (CWE-653: Unsupported Feature in Generator), allowing attackers to manipulate the store without proper access controls or validation. This design flaw enables an attacker to enumerate and delete entries belonging to other users or sessions, effectively invalidating the single-use constraint that these tokens are designed to enforce. The affected component is present in Red Hat Build of Keycloak across multiple versions as indicated by the wildcard CPE specification.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw was found in Keycloak. The SingleUseObjectProvider, a global key-value store, lacks proper type and namespace isolation. This vulnerability allows an attacker to delete arbitrary single-use entries, which can enable the replay of consumed action tokens, such as password reset links. This could lead to unauthorized access or account compromise.
