CVE-2026-4630: Keycloak: keycloak: unauthorized resource access and data modification via insecure direct object reference
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 27/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.30% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: org.keycloak:keycloak-services (Maven) 26.6.2.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to org.keycloak:keycloak-services (Maven) 26.6.2 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
A flaw was found in Keycloak. An authenticated client could exploit an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability in the Authorization Services Protection API endpoint. By knowing or obtaining a resource's unique identifier (UUID) belonging to another Resource Server within the same realm, the client could bypass authorization checks. This allows the client to perform unauthorized GET, PUT, and DELETE operations on resources, leading to information disclosure and potential unauthorized modification or deletion of data.
