CVE-2026-1190

Description

A flaw was found in Keycloak's SAML brokering functionality. When Keycloak is configured as a client in a Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) setup, it fails to validate the NotOnOrAfter timestamp within the SubjectConfirmationData. This allows an attacker to delay the expiration of SAML responses, potentially extending the time a response is considered valid and leading to unexpected session durations or resource consumption.

Statement

This vulnerability is rated Low for Red Hat products. In the Red Hat context, this flaw in Keycloak's SAML brokering functionality allows an attacker to delay the expiration of SAML responses by not validating the NotOnOrAfter timestamp in SubjectConfirmationData. This could lead to unexpected session durations or increased resource consumption.

Mitigation

Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
