Description
A flaw was found in the Fine-Grained Admin Permissions (FGAP) v2 implementation within Keycloak's administrative services. When FGAP v2 is enabled, the system fails to properly filter child groups based on the caller's specific permissions when requested through a parent group. This allows a delegated administrator to view details of child groups they are not authorized to access directly, including group names, paths, and custom attributes.

Impact

Keycloak’s Fine‑Grained Admin Permissions (FGAP) v2 contains a flaw where child groups are not filtered according to the caller’s permissions when requested via a parent group endpoint. An authenticated delegated administrator can retrieve child group names, paths, and custom attributes that they are not authorized to see. This bypass violates row‑level access controls (CWE‑1220) and exposes sensitive group hierarchy information that should be confidential.

Affected Systems

Deployments of the Red Hat Build of Keycloak with Fine‑Grained Admin Permissions v2 enabled are affected. Version details are not specified, so the issue applies to all instances where FGAP v2 is active.

Risk and Exploitability

The likely attack vector is an authenticated administrative user issuing an HTTP request to the parent group endpoint when FGAP v2 is enabled. The CVSS score of 4.3 reflects low severity, and the EPSS score of < 1% indicates a very small likelihood of exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The flaw results only in information disclosure and does not grant additional privileges.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest Red Hat patch that corrects child‑group permission filtering in FGAP v2.
  • If a patch is not yet available, temporarily disable FGAP v2 in the Keycloak configuration to stop the bypass until an update is applied.
  • Configure access controls to limit who can query the parent group endpoint and enable audit logging for all administrative group queries.
