CVE-2023-24457 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability affecting the Keycloak Authentication Plugin for Jenkins, discovered and disclosed on January 24, 2023. The vulnerability affects versions 2.3.0 and earlier of the plugin (Jenkins Advisory).
The vulnerability is classified as Medium severity and stems from the plugin's failure to implement a state parameter in its OAuth flow. A state parameter is meant to be a unique and non-guessable value associated with each authentication request. The absence of this security measure in Keycloak Authentication Plugin version 2.3.0 and earlier creates a security weakness in the authentication process (Jenkins Advisory).
The vulnerability enables attackers to perform social engineering attacks that can trick users into logging into the attacker's account. This security flaw in the OAuth implementation could potentially lead to unauthorized access and account compromise (Jenkins Advisory).
At the time of the security advisory's publication, no official fix was available for this vulnerability. Users of the Keycloak Authentication Plugin should monitor for updates and implement general security best practices while waiting for a patch (Jenkins Advisory).
