A flaw was found in keycloak, where the default ECP binding flow allows other authentication flows to be bypassed. By exploiting this behavior, an attacker can bypass the MFA authentication by sending a SOAP request with an AuthnRequest and Authorization header with the users credentials. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality and integrity.

Weakness

When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct.
