A flaw was found in Keycloak. The Keycloak Authorization header parser is overly permissive regarding the formatting of the "Bearer" authentication scheme. It accepts non-standard characters (such as tabs) as separators and tolerates case variations that deviate from RFC 6750 specifications.
Monitor this advisory for an available fix and review any installs of the affected package.

hol-guard supply-chain scanKeycloak has Incorrect Behavior Order: Authorization Before Parsing and Canonicalization affects org.keycloak:keycloak-parent (maven). Severity is medium. A flaw was found in Keycloak. The Keycloak Authorization header parser is overly permissive regarding the formatting of the "Bearer" authentication scheme. It accepts non-standard characters (such as tabs) as separators and tolerates case variations that deviate from RFC 6750 specifications.
AI coding agents often install or upgrade packages automatically in maven. A medium vulnerability in a dependency can be pulled into a project through a normal install or update without a human reviewing the change, expanding the blast radius from a single package to every agent workspace that depends on it.
