Information disclosure through arbitrary filesystem path probing

Summary

A flaw was found in Keycloak. A realm administrator with the "manage-realm" role can exploit this vulnerability by submitting an arbitrary filesystem path as a keystore parameter when creating a key provider component. This allows the administrator to probe arbitrary filesystem paths, determining which files exist and are readable by the Keycloak process. This information disclosure could be used to identify high-value targets for follow-on attacks. A flaw was found in Keycloak. A realm administrator with the "manage-realm" role can exploit this vulnerability by submitting an arbitrary filesystem path as a keystore parameter when creating a key provider component. This allows the administrator to probe arbitrary filesystem paths, determining which files exist and are readable by the Keycloak process. This information disclosure could be used to identify high-value targets for follow-on attacks. Medium: This flaw in Keycloak allows a highly privileged realm administrator with the "manage-realm" role to perform arbitrary filesystem path probing. By submitting a crafted keystore path, an authenticated attacker can determine the existence and readability of files on the Keycloak server, potentially identifying high-value targets for further attacks. Exploitation requires an attacker to possess the "manage-realm" role, which is a high-level administrative permission.
