Vendor Workaround
Configure the reverse proxy to overwrite incoming proxy headers, including X-Forwarded-For, and ensure Keycloak trusts proxy headers only from the intended proxy rather than directly from untrusted clients. If proxy-header support is not required, disable acceptance of incoming proxy headers.

EUVD |
EUVD-2024-3365 | A vulnerability was found in the Keycloak Server. The Keycloak Server is vulnerable to a denial of service (DoS) attack due to improper handling of proxy headers. When Keycloak is configured to accept incoming proxy headers, it may accept non-IP values, such as obfuscated identifiers, without proper validation. This issue can lead to costly DNS resolution operations, which an attacker could exploit to tie up IO threads and potentially cause a denial of service. The attacker must have access to send requests to a Keycloak instance that is configured to accept proxy headers, specifically when reverse proxies do not overwrite incoming headers, and Keycloak is configured to trust these headers. |
