Technical details
The SAML Artifact Resolution and ECP SOAP endpoints in Keycloak fail to properly validate the size and complexity of incoming XML requests (CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption). An unauthenticated attacker on the network can send large, specially crafted XML payloads that trigger unbounded memory allocation, causing the application to crash and resulting in denial of service for all users.
