CVE-2026-16100

6.5 mediumEPSS 0.6%

Medium (6.5) in redhat build of keycloak. EPSS 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A flaw was found in the user-event metrics recording of Keycloak. When metrics are enabled, the system records raw error messages from failed account operations as Prometheus metric labels. Because these error messages can include user-supplied input like nonexistent client IDs, an authenticated user can create a massive number of unique metric entries, eventually exhausting system memory and causing the service to crash or become unavailable.
