CVE-2026-18209 Details
Description
A flaw was found in the keycloak-services component of Keycloak, which handles OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication flows. The issue occurs because the security check designed to prevent HTTP parameter pollution only inspects the query portion of a redirect URL and ignores the fragment portion. When a client is configured with a wildcard redirect URI, an attacker can use this to inject duplicate security parameters into the login response. If a client application is not configured correctly, it might trust the attacker's injected data instead of the real security information from Keycloak, leading to session fixation or account confusion.
A vulnerability exists in the keycloak-services component of Keycloak, specifically within OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication flows. The issue arises because the security mechanism intended to prevent HTTP parameter pollution only examines the query part of a redirect URL, neglecting the fragment section. This flaw allows an attacker to inject duplicate security parameters into the login response by exploiting clients with wildcard redirect URIs. If the client application is misconfigured, it may accept the injected data from the attacker instead of the authentic security information from Keycloak, potentially causing session fixation or account confusion.
