Details
A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Red Hat Keycloak (the affected version is unknown). Affected is the function SubjectConfirmationData of the component SAML Brokering. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-112. The product accepts XML from an untrusted source but does not validate the XML against the proper schema. The impact remains unknown. CVE summarizes:
A flaw was found in Keycloak's SAML brokering functionality. When Keycloak is configured as a client in a Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) setup, it fails to validate the `NotOnOrAfter` timestamp within the `SubjectConfirmationData`. This allows an attacker to delay the expiration of SAML responses, potentially extending the time a response is considered valid and leading to unexpected session durations or resource consumption.
