How to Fix CVE-2026-0707
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Keycloak parent dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.keycloak</groupId>
<artifactId>keycloak-parent</artifactId>
<version>Latest secure release</version>
</dependency>
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.keycloak
How to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-0707, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.keycloak
Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Keycloak parent in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.
Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.keycloak command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.
Technical Details
Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-551: Incorrect Behavior Order: Authorization Before Parsing and Canonicalization, where if a web server does not fully parse requested urls before it examines them for authorization, it may be possible for an attacker to bypass authorization protection. In Keycloak parent, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.
