CVE-2026-110932: Keycloak theme resource disk exhaustion

CVE-2026-110932 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.5 · Published 2026-11-05

Keycloak is an identity and access management system that handles user authentication and authorization for applications. An attacker can send specially crafted requests with fake theme names to exhaust the server's disk space, preventing legitimate users from logging in and using the system. This denial-of-service attack requires no authentication and persists even after the server restarts.

Technologies: Red Hat build of Keycloak. Vendors: Red Hat.

Technical details

The theme resource endpoint in Keycloak fails to validate theme names before using them as cache keys for on-disk gzip storage, allowing uncontrolled resource consumption. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this via network requests with fabricated theme names to trigger persistent disk space exhaustion (CWE-400), causing service disruption that survives restarts.
