CVE-2026-9793 Details
Description
A flaw was found in Keycloak. When a JSON Web Encryption (JWE) encrypted request object is submitted, Keycloak may incorrectly process unsigned claims if the decrypted content is raw JSON, bypassing the configured signature policy. This allows a remote attacker to submit unauthorized claims, leading to a compromise of data integrity within the OpenID Connect (OIDC) authorization flow. While a redirect URI allowlist acts as a compensating control, this vulnerability violates OIDC Core and Financial-grade API (FAPI) signing requirements.
A vulnerability exists in Keycloak's handling of JSON Web Encryption (JWE) encrypted request objects. When the decrypted content is raw JSON, Keycloak may improperly process unsigned claims, ignoring the established signature policy. This flaw enables remote attackers to introduce unauthorized claims, jeopardizing data integrity in the OpenID Connect (OIDC) authorization process. Although a redirect URI allowlist provides some mitigation, this issue contravenes OIDC Core and Financial-grade API (FAPI) signing standards.
