NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rh-sso7-keycloak-server package and not the rh-sso7-keycloak-server package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

It was found that Keycloak oauth would permit an authenticated resource to obtain an access/refresh token pair from the authentication server, permitting indefinite usage in the case of permission revocation. An attacker on an already compromised resource could use this flaw to grant himself continued permissions and possibly conduct further attacks.
