Description

It was found that SAML authentication in Keycloak 3.4.3.Final incorrectly authenticated expired certificates. A malicious user could use this to access unauthorized data or possibly conduct further attacks.

Affected versions

Maven

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-295: Improper Certificate Validation

The product does not validate, or incorrectly validates, a certificate.

How to prevent it
  • Architecture and Design, Implementation: Certificates should be carefully managed and checked to assure that data are encrypted with the intended owner's public key.
  • Implementation: If certificate pinning is being used, ensure that all relevant properties of the certificate are fully validated before the certificate is pinned, including the hostname.
