Keycloak: Insufficient verification proof scoping enables identity provider account linking attack and account compromise
GHSA-m6qj-3mpp-57v8 · CVE-2026-9087
Published · Modified
Description
A flaw was found in Keycloak. The cross-session verification proof is keyed only by (local userId,
idpAlias) and is not bound to the upstream identity that was actually verified, so a second upstream account on the same IdP can consume it and get linked to the victim's local account.
