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.

An unconstrained memory consumption vulnerability was discovered in Keycloak. It can be triggered in environments which have millions of offline tokens (> 500,000 users with each having at least 2 saved sessions). If an attacker creates two or more user sessions and then open the "consents" tab of the admin User Interface, the UI attempts to load a huge number of offline client sessions leading to excessive memory and CPU consumption which could potentially crash the entire system.
