CVE-2026-94001
Keycloak-services: keycloak-services: admin credential delete bypasses denied reset-password permission
What happened?
A flaw was found in the Admin REST API of Keycloak, an open-source identity and access management solution. The endpoint used for deleting user credentials does not correctly check for fine-grained reset-password permissions. This allows a delegated administrator, who should be restricted from resetting passwords, to delete a user's password credentials, resulting in the user being unable to log in.
