CVE-2026-16093 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
There is no fixed version for org.keycloak:keycloak-services.
Overview
org.keycloak:keycloak-services is an open source identity and access management solution for modern applications and services.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Reliance on Untrusted Inputs in a Security Decision through the client authentication flow in the client policies and assertion handling components. An attacker can authenticate with weaker client credentials by supplying a fake unsigned assertion header that makes the server believe the policy requirements have been satisfied. This defeats administrator-mandated requirements for signed JWT assertions and lets a client complete authentication with a simpler method such as a client secret, weakening client authentication controls.
