A flaw was found in org.keycloak.broker.saml. When a disabled Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) client is configured as an Identity Provider (IdP)-initiated broker landing target, it can still complete the login process and establish a Single Sign-On (SSO) session. This allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to other enabled clients without re-authentication, effectively bypassing security restrictions.

Solution

No solution given by the vendor.


Workaround

To mitigate this issue, ensure that any SAML client intended to be disabled is not configured as an IdP-initiated broker landing target within Keycloak. Review your Keycloak realm configurations to identify and remove any such associations for disabled clients.
