Red Hat default-groups REST endpoint: information disclosure

Medium4.3CVE-2026-16108 · Published Jul 17, 2026 · updated Sep 16, 2026

A flaw was found in the default-groups REST endpoint and realm representation of Keycloak. This component is responsible for managing groups that are automatically assigned to new users within a realm. The issue allows a delegated administrator with realm-viewing permissions to see the names and identifiers of hidden default groups, even if they lack the specific permissions to view those groups. This can lead to the exposure of sensitive organizational structures or internal group names.
