CVE-2026-96453Org.keycloak/keycloak-admin-cli: keycloak-admin-cli: kcadm custom truststore accepts arbitrary self-signed certificates
High 8.0
In plain English
A high-severity improper certificate validation in Red Hat AMQ Broker 7 from Red Hat. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.2% (higher than 6% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
A flaw was found in the Keycloak Admin CLI kcadm tool, which is used by administrators to manage Keycloak servers from the command line. When a custom truststore is provided to verify the server identity, the tool incorrectly accepts any self-signed certificate as long as the hostname matches. This allows a network attacker to impersonate the Keycloak server, steal administrative credentials, and perform unauthorized management actions.
