NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream keycloak-advanced-compat package and not the keycloak-advanced-compat package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in Keycloak. A remote attacker with high privileges, such as a realm administrator configuring a malicious Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server or an attacker compromising an upstream LDAP server, could exploit this vulnerability. By sending a malformed LDAP password policy response during a password authentication request, the attacker can trigger an OutOfMemoryError. This causes the Keycloak Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to terminate, leading to a denial of service (DoS) for all realms on the affected node.
