Keycloak CVE-2026-18963 Docker Lab

This lab starts the vulnerable Keycloak version 26.7.1 on localhost and seeds a minimal realm for reproducing the CVE flow.

Investigation documents

  • Workflow analysis: source-level root cause, affected request sequence, patch comparison, and remediation.
  • Evidence and test matrix: acceptance criteria for vulnerable and fixed builds.

Start

root@kitploit:~
docker compose up -d keycloak-vuln
docker compose up --abort-on-container-exit keycloak-lab-init

Keycloak will be exposed at:

  • http://127.0.0.1:18080
  • admin console: admin / admin

Seeded lab objects:

  • realm: lab
  • client: poc
  • redirect URI: http://localhost/cb
  • user: victim
  • password: OldPassw0rd!

Stop

root@kitploit:~
docker compose down

Notes

  • This compose file intentionally runs only the vulnerable version.
  • The init container is idempotent enough for repeated local testing; it skips existing realm/client/user and resets the victim password.
  • Runtime reproduction was not executed in the current review environment because Docker was unavailable. Do not treat static source analysis as a live takeover result until the evidence matrix has been run on an isolated lab.
