CVE-2026-94218 - Keycloak-services: keycloak-services: 2fa setup enforcement bypass via authentication session restart endpoint

CVE ID :CVE-2026-94218
Published : Sept. 21, 2026, 7:16 a.m. | 3 hours, 53 minutes ago
Description :A flaw was found in the authentication session management of Keycloak, an identity and access management solution. The issue occurs when an administrator enforces a stronger authentication flow, such as mandatory two-factor authentication (2FA) setup, through a client policy. A user can bypass this requirement by manually visiting a specific session restart web link during the login process. This action clears the internal markers that track the required security steps, allowing the user to log in with only a password and gain access without completing the mandated 2FA setup.
Severity: 3.1 | LOW
