CVE-2024-3656: Keycloak's admin API allows low privilege users to use administrative functions
(updated )
Users with low privileges (just plain users in the realm) are able to utilize administrative functionalities within Keycloak admin interface. This issue presents a significant security risk as it allows unauthorized users to perform actions reserved for administrators, potentially leading to data breaches or system compromise.
