Описание
A session fixation vulnerability was found in Keycloak's login-actions endpoints. An unauthenticated attacker could exploit this flaw by pre-creating an authentication session and tricking a victim into visiting a maliciously crafted link. By leveraging the /login-actions/restart endpoint—which processes session handles without adequate CSRF protection or cookie ownership validation—an attacker can reset the authentication flow state. This causes Single Sign-On (SSO) to authenticate the victim transparently upon clicking the link, allowing the attacker to hijack the required-action form without needing the victim's credentials. A successful exploit could lead to complete account takeover, including highly privileged administrative accounts.
Отчет
This is a Critical session fixation vulnerability in Keycloak's login-actions endpoints. An unauthenticated attacker can pre-create an authentication session and, by exploiting a lack of CSRF token or cookie ownership checks on the /login-actions/restart endpoint, reset the flow state to achieve silent Single Sign-On (SSO). This allows for full takeover of the master-realm admin account in default Keycloak deployments.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
