Summary
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.
The Red Hat Product Security team has assessed the severity of this vulnerability as Moderate, given that it requires the attacker to possess a delegated administrator role with specific permissions. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to disclose sensitive group metadata and attributes that should be restricted.
The vulnerability's root cause is an improper conditional check in the group retrieval logic that fails to apply permission filters when FGAP v2 is enabled. Weakness: CWE-1220.
Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.4; Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.4.14; Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.6; Red Hat build of Keycloak 26.6.5. Red Hat fixing advisory: RHSA-2026:50847, RHSA-2026:50846, RHSA-2026:50849, RHSA-2026:50848.
