CVE-2026-16100 | BDVDB-2026-355361 Detail
Red HatRed Hat build of Keycloak 26.6
Description#
A flaw was found in the user-event metrics recording of Keycloak. When metrics are enabled, the system records raw error messages from failed account operations as Prometheus metric labels. Because these error messages can include user-supplied input like nonexistent client IDs, an authenticated user can create a massive number of unique metric entries, eventually exhausting system memory and causing the service to crash or become unavailable.
Impact#
Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact none, integrity impact none, availability impact high. Attack vector: network.
