A flaw was found in GStreamer gst-plugins-good (avidemux). In gstavidemuxriffparsevprp(), the number of available gstriffvprpvideofielddesc entries is calculated by dividing the remaining buffer size by the attacker-controlled vprp->fields value, rather than by sizeof(gstriffvprpvideofielddesc). This can cause the parser to treat more field descriptors as available than fit in the input buffer, resulting in out-of-bounds reads. Processing a crafted AVI via playbin/decodebin can crash the application (denial of service). Fixed upstream in gst-plugins-good 1.28.6 (GStreamer-SA-2026-0072).
A flaw was found in GStreamer gst-plugins-good (avidemux). When parsing FUJIFILM metadata in an AVI strd chunk, gstavidemuxparsestrd() decrements a remaining-length counter by fixed offsets (98 and 10 bytes) without verifying sufficient data remains. For crafted strd payloads of exactly 106 or 107 bytes, the counter underflows to a very large unsigned value, causing subsequent null-terminated string scanning to read far beyond the allocated heap buffer. Date-format normalization may also write beyond the buffer end. Confirmed impacts include heap out-of-bounds read, out-of-bounds write, heap information disclosure (adjacent data appearing in parsed metadata), and application crash/denial of service. The avidemux element is auto-plugged by playbin, decodebin, and gst-discoverer, so opening or previewing a crafted AVI is sufficient to trigger the issue. Fixed upstream in gst-plugins-good 1.28.6 (GStreamer-SA-2026-0072).
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server (389-ds-base). In idssaslcheckbind(), on a successful SASLOK from the underlying Cyrus SASL library, the connection is marked SASL-complete and bind credentials are installed via bindcredentialssetnolock() before the account-lock check (slapicheckaccountlock()) is performed for non-root binds. If the subsequent lock check determines the account is locked (nsAccountLock: true), the bind is failed and reported to the client, but the already-installed SASL-complete flag and bind credentials are not reverted. A client that already knows the correct password for an account that has since been administratively locked can bind via SASL PLAIN, receive an "account locked" failure response, and continue using the same, already-authenticated TCP connection to perform further LDAP operations as that account -- defeating account lock as an access-revocation control. Setting nsslapd-close-on-failed-bind does not mitigate this. This finding was independently reported by two unrelated parties (OpenAI Security Research and Andrew Rukin of Arenadata) who converged on the identical root cause.
A flaw was found in GNU tar. The --one-top-level option is intended to confine extraction under a designated directory, but hardlink targets from the archive are not confined the same way and are resolved relative to the extraction working directory (or the directory given with -C). A crafted archive can create hardlinks inside the --one-top-level directory that point to files outside it. If a suitable symbolic link already exists under the extraction working directory, hardlinking to that symlink can bypass tar's usual symlink-based path protections and allow writing outside the intended top-level directory during a single extraction. Users who rely on --one-top-level as a security boundary when extracting untrusted archives may be affected.
A flaw was found in the keycloak-services component of Keycloak, which is used for managing authentication and authorization flows. The issue occurs when a realm administrator configures client policies to enforce specific authentication requirements on confidential clients. Due to improper evaluation of the client state during an update operation, an attacker with client management permissions can bypass these security policies by first creating a public client and then updating it to a confidential client with weaker authentication. This can result in the persistence of clients that do not comply with the intended security hardening of the realm.
A vulnerability was found in Keycloak where authenticated users can bypass authorization services time policies. When requesting a User-Managed Access (UMA) permission, a caller can supply a claim token containing forged kc.time.datetime values. Keycloak merges these caller-supplied claims after the server-generated time attributes, allowing the forged values to overwrite the server clock during policy evaluation. This allows an attacker to obtain Resource Permission Tokens (RPTs) outside of the time windows configured by administrators, effectively defeating temporal access controls such as maintenance windows or off-hours access denials.
A flaw was found in SSSD. The sssnssprotocolparseaddr() function in the NSS responder (src/responder/nss/nssprotocol.c) extracts a 32-bit addrlen value from the client request but only validates that the body is at least 8 bytes, without checking that addrlen fits within the remaining packet body. This unvalidated length is passed through to tallocmemdup() in cachereqdatacreate(), which copies addrlen bytes from the small request buffer, causing a heap-buffer-overflow read. A local attacker can trigger this by connecting to the world-writable NSS responder socket (/var/lib/sss/pipes/nss) and sending a SSSNSSGETHOSTBYADDR (0x0053) request with a large addrlen value and a valid address family payload so that inetntop() succeeds. Successful exploitation crashes the sssdnss responder, causing a denial of service for NSS name resolution. Reported via PSIRTSUPT-20553 by BreachX Zero Day Labs.
A flaw was found in the full-scope-disabled client-policy executor within the keycloak-services component. This component is responsible for enforcing security policies during client registration and configuration in Red Hat Build of Keycloak. The issue occurs because the executor only validates the fullScopeAllowed field when it is explicitly provided in a request. By omitting this field, a delegated user can bypass the policy, resulting in a client created with full scope access. This allows the client to obtain tokens with unauthorized role mappings.
A TOCTOU (Time-of-Check Time-of-Use) vulnerability in GNU tar's incremental dumpdir 'X' rename handling allows a local attacker with write access to a directory being backed up to influence the restore process if the attacker has access to the system where the restore is being performed. During restoration, files or directories may be created, renamed or overwritten outside the intended extraction directory. This could lead to unauthorized file modification or, in some cases, privilege escalation. Exploitation does not require the attacker to modify or craft the archive, and standard backup and restore workflows—including extracting into a newly created directory without using the -P option do not mitigate the issue.
Summary
The koku-metrics-operator CostManagementMetricsConfig CRD exposes spec.authentication.tokenurl as a writable field with no host validation. When spec.authentication.type == service-account, the operator POSTs clientid and clientsecret (read from a user-referenced Secret) as form data to this user-supplied URL. The default is the Red Hat SSO endpoint, but a CR editor can override it to any URL.
Impact
A principal with create/update permission on costmanagementmetricsconfigs can redirect the tenant's Red Hat SSO clientid/clientsecret pair to an attacker endpoint. These credentials grant api.console scope on console.redhat.com for the customer organization.
Affected Code
- api/v1beta1/metricsconfigtypes.go:117 — tokenurl field definition (no validation) - internal/controller/costmanagementmetricsconfigcontroller.go:450 — GetAccessToken(ctx, cr.Spec.Authentication.TokenURL) call - internal/crhchttp/config.go:75-93 — POST to user-supplied tokenURL
Remediation
Hard-code the Red Hat SSO token endpoint or enforce a suffix allow-list (.redhat.com) in GetAccessToken. Reject non-HTTPS schemes:
go if !strings.HasSuffix(tokenURL, ".redhat.com") { return "", fmt.Errorf("tokenurl must be a .redhat.com endpoint") }
A flaw was found in the TokenManager component of the Keycloak identity management service. When an administrator attempts to revoke tokens for a specific application (client) using a "not-before" policy, the revocation may be silently ignored if the overall security realm already has an older, non-zero revocation policy in place. This issue can allow previously issued tokens to remain valid for refreshing sessions and accessing user information even after an administrator has attempted to invalidate them. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A flaw was found in the SAML protocol implementation of Keycloak, an open-source identity and access management solution. The issue occurs when Keycloak handles SAML authentication requests using the HTTP-Redirect binding. If a client is configured with a wildcard redirect URL, an attacker can craft a request that includes malicious parameters. When a user authenticates, Keycloak appends its legitimate response to the attacker's parameters. This can cause some service providers to process the attacker's data instead of the real login information, potentially leading to a user being logged into the wrong account.
A flaw was found in the client policy enforcement mechanism of Keycloak. The issue occurs when the system checks group membership by name instead of a unique identifier. An attacker with client management privileges could bypass security policies by joining a group with a matching name in a different part of the group hierarchy, potentially allowing them to register or update clients without following required security hardening profiles.
A flaw was found in the secure-client-uris client policy executor in Keycloak. The executor permits non-HTTPS redirect URIs when allow-http-on-localhost is enabled by performing a simple string prefix check for http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 instead of parsing the URI to validate the host component. An attacker can exploit this by registering a client via Dynamic Client Registration using a redirect URI that starts with the allowed prefix but points to an attacker-controlled domain (e.g., http://localhost.evil.test). If the policy is scoped to authorizationcode requests, it fails to block the registration or the subsequent use of the malicious URI. When a victim authenticates through the attacker's client, the authorization code is transmitted over cleartext HTTP to the attacker's server. This allows the attacker to intercept the authorization code and potentially gain unauthorized access to the victim's session.
A flaw was found in the keycloak-services component of Keycloak, which handles OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication flows. The issue occurs because the security check designed to prevent HTTP parameter pollution only inspects the query portion of a redirect URL and ignores the fragment portion. When a client is configured with a wildcard redirect URI, an attacker can use this to inject duplicate security parameters into the login response. If a client application is not configured correctly, it might trust the attacker's injected data instead of the real security information from Keycloak, leading to session fixation or account confusion.
A flaw was found in the OIDC token introspection endpoint of the keycloak-services component. Keycloak is an open-source identity and access management solution used to secure modern applications and services. The issue occurs when a confidential client, configured to receive signed JWT introspection responses, attempts to introspect a token issued for a different audience. Although the endpoint correctly identifies the token as inactive for that client, it still returns the full set of token claims within a signed JWT field. This allows an unauthorized client to bypass audience-based restrictions and access sensitive information contained in the token.
A flaw was found in the group policy evaluation logic of Keycloak, an identity and access management solution. When a group policy is set to extend permissions to child groups, the system incorrectly uses a simple text-based prefix check to verify group membership. This allows a user who belongs to a different group with a similar starting name to bypass security checks and gain unauthorized access to administrative functions or protected resources.
A flaw was found in Keycloak. The generic identity-provider REST endpoint (/admin/realms/{realm}/identity-provider/instances) allows a user with only manage-identity-providers permission to bind a newly created identity provider to an organization by including an organizationId in the request payload. While the organization-scoped endpoint correctly requires both manage-identity-providers and manage-organizations permissions, the generic endpoint fails to enforce the manage-organizations check. This allows an IdP operator to associate brokers with organizations they are not authorized to manage, influencing organization login flows and broker selection. Additionally, this path skips organization IdP-list cache invalidation, making the newly bound broker invisible in cached organization IdP listings.
A flaw was found in the file-sgi plugin in GIMP, affecting all versions. When processing an RLE-compressed SGI image, the plugin allocates memory for a row table. The image header dimensions (ysize and zsize) are read as 16-bit unsigned integers. If a crafted file sets both dimensions to their maximum value (65535), the multiplication ysize zsize overflows the standard 32-bit int boundary before being passed to calloc. This integer overflow issue results in undefined behavior, aborting the plugin and causing a denial of service.
A flaw was found in the role-users endpoint of the keycloak-services library, which is the core component of the Keycloak identity and access management solution. The issue occurs because the system fails to check if an administrator has permission to view individual users when listing members of a role. This allows a restricted administrator to see private information, such as names and email addresses, for users they should not be able to access.
A flaw was found in the Keycloak Admin REST API, which is used to manage security realms and clients. The issue occurs when the system processes requests for rotated client secrets that are stored in a secure vault. Due to improper boundary enforcement, a delegated administrator with view-only permissions can retrieve the actual resolved secret instead of the vault placeholder, leading to the exposure of sensitive credentials.
A flaw was found in the default-groups REST endpoint and realm representation of Keycloak. This component is responsible for managing groups that are automatically assigned to new users within a realm. The issue allows a delegated administrator with realm-viewing permissions to see the names and identifiers of hidden default groups, even if they lack the specific permissions to view those groups. This can lead to the exposure of sensitive organizational structures or internal group names.
A flaw was found in the admin REST API of Keycloak, a solution for identity and access management. The issue occurs when a delegated administrator attempts to remove a child role from a composite role. Due to missing authorization checks, an attacker with limited administrative permissions can remove privileged roles they are not authorized to manage, leading to a loss of access for other users and administrators.
A flaw was found in the RoleContainerResource component of Keycloak. The issue occurs because certain name-based endpoints in the admin REST API do not properly enforce authorization checks when managing composite roles. This allows a delegated administrator with manage-realm permissions to remove essential child roles from built-in admin roles, potentially disrupting administrative functions within a realm.
A flaw was found in the authentication configuration endpoint of the keycloak-services component, which is the core engine for Red Hat Build of Keycloak identity and access management. The issue occurs because the system fails to mask sensitive configuration values, such as reCAPTCHA secret keys, when they are requested by administrators with view-only permissions. This can lead to the exposure of third-party service credentials to unauthorized personnel or through administrative logs.
A flaw was found in the keycloak-services component of Keycloak. This issue is an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-9798, where brute-force protection checks were added to the Client-Initiated Backchannel Authentication (CIBA) initiation handler but were omitted from the token redemption handler. This allows an attacker with valid client credentials to obtain access and refresh tokens for a user account that has been locked due to brute-force protection, provided the authentication request was started before the lockout occurred and was approved by the user.
A denial of service vulnerability was discovered in Keycloak metrics implementation. When user-event metrics are enabled, the EventMetricsProvider records the verbatim error message from failed account operations as a Prometheus metric label. The account consent endpoint specifically embeds caller-supplied input, such as nonexistent client IDs or invalid scope names, directly into these error messages. An authenticated attacker with manage-account or manage-consent permissions can exploit this by repeatedly calling the account consent delete endpoint with unique, randomized client ID values. Each request results in a distinct error message and a corresponding new Prometheus metric time series. This leads to unbounded metric cardinality, which can exhaust the memory of both the Keycloak instance and the connected monitoring system, resulting in a denial of service and degradation of metrics availability.
A flaw was found in the Secure Client Registration executor within the keycloak-services component. The vulnerability exists in the logic that enforces the signed-JWT assertion policy for client registration and updates. When the SecureSigningAlgorithmForSignedJwtExecutor is configured to require a client assertion, it only checks the alg field in the raw client assertion JWT header. It fails to validate that the client assertion type is present or that the client's actual authenticator is assertion-based. By providing a specially crafted request with an unsigned assertion header containing a valid alg field, an attacker with valid client credentials can bypass the signature verification check. This allows the attacker to successfully authenticate or update a client without providing the required cryptographic proof of identity. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to circumvent administrative security policies intended to restrict client authentication to trusted assertion-based methods.
A flaw was found in the keycloak-services component of Red Hat Build of Keycloak. The issue occurs because OAuth 2.0 authorization codes are not properly bound to the client that originally requested them. An attacker who can intercept an authorization code can modify it to be redeemed by their own client, potentially allowing them to obtain access tokens for a victim's identity.
A flaw was found in the organization management component of Keycloak. A delegated administrator with permission to manage organizations can create an invitation for a non-existent email address and then retrieve the secret registration link directly through the application programming interface. By using this link, the administrator can create new user accounts and add them to the organization without having the required user management permissions or access to the invited email account. This allows an administrator to bypass security boundaries and add unauthorized members to an organization.
