A flaw was found in Keycloak. A remote attacker with high privileges, such as a realm administrator configuring a malicious Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server or an attacker compromising an upstream LDAP server, could exploit this vulnerability. By sending a malformed LDAP password policy response during a password authentication request, the attacker can trigger an OutOfMemoryError. This causes the Keycloak Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to terminate, leading to a denial of service (DoS) for all realms on the affected node.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in Keycloak's LDAP federation layer allows an authenticated realm administrator - or an attacker who has compromised an upstream LDAP server - to crash the entire Keycloak JVM by inducing an OutOfMemoryError through a malformed LDAP password policy response. Because Keycloak typically serves multiple realms from a single JVM process, a successful attack denies service to all realms on the affected node, not just the targeted one. …
