NVD Description

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

A flaw was found in Keycloak, where it does not correctly validate its client step-up authentication in org.keycloak.authentication. This flaw allows a remote user authenticated with a password to register a false second authentication factor along with an existing one and bypass authentication.
