Keycloak-services: keycloak-services: potential kdc spoofing bypass when kerberos password authentication is enabled

Published Sep 22, 2026 · Updated Nov 6, 2026 · Assigned by redhat

Description

A flaw was found in the Kerberos federation provider of Keycloak, an open-source identity and access management solution. When Kerberos password authentication is used without SPNEGO, the system fails to verify the identity of the Key Distribution Center (KDC) by requesting a server ticket. This allows an attacker on the same network to spoof the KDC and bypass the authentication process, potentially gaining unauthorized access to user accounts.
