26.5.2- Upgrade org.keycloak:keycloak-services to this version or later
Description
A flaw was found in Keycloak Admin API. This vulnerability allows an administrator with limited privileges to retrieve sensitive custom attributes via the /unmanagedAttributes endpoint, bypassing User Profile visibility settings.
Affected versions
Maven
| Package | Vulnerable | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|
| org.keycloak:keycloak-services | >= 26.5.0, < 26.5.2 |
26.5.2 |
| org.keycloak:keycloak-services | < 26.4.9 |
26.4.9 |
How to fix
Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.

Weakness
CWE-266: Incorrect Privilege Assignment
A product incorrectly assigns a privilege to a particular actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
How to prevent it
- Architecture and Design, Operation: Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
- Architecture and Design, Operation: Run your code using the lowest privileges that are required to accomplish the necessary tasks [REF-76]. If possible, create isolated accounts with limited privileges that are only used for a single task. That way, a successful attack will not immediately give the attacker access to the rest of the software or its environment. For example, database applications rarely need to run as the database administrator, especially in day-to-day operations.
