The SAML Artifact Resolution and ECP SOAP endpoints in Red Hat build of Keycloak do not limit the size or complexity of incoming XML requests, which is CWE-400 uncontrolled resource consumption.

Description from the CNA

A flaw was found in the SAML implementation of Keycloak, an open-source identity and access management solution. The SAML Artifact Resolution and ECP SOAP endpoints do not properly limit the size or complexity of incoming XML requests. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending specially crafted, large XML messages that cause the server to consume excessive memory. This leads to the application running out of memory and crashing, resulting in a denial of service for all users.
