Keycloak-services: keycloak-services: unauthenticated cpu exhaustion via saml 1.1 keyinfo infinite loop

Published Nov 5, 2026 · Updated Nov 9, 2026 · Assigned by redhat

Description

A flaw was found in the SAML 1.1 XML parsing logic of Keycloak, an open-source identity and access management solution. The issue occurs when the parser encounters unexpected elements within a security token's key information section, causing the processing thread to enter an infinite loop. An unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit this by sending specially crafted requests, leading to 100% CPU usage and a total denial of service that requires a server restart to resolve.
