Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-19 12:31 – Updated: 2026-05-20 18:31

Details

A flaw was found in Keycloak. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can send a specially crafted XML input to the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) endpoint. This malicious input can cause high CPU usage and worker thread starvation, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) where the server becomes unavailable.

Severity ?

7.5 (High)
