A flaw was found in Keycloak. This authentication vulnerability allows a remote attacker to replay ExecuteActionsActionToken tokens within Keycloaks WebAuthn (Web Authentication) flow. By intercepting an execute-actions email link, an attacker can register their own authenticator to a victims account. This leads to unauthorized enrollment of a hardware-backed credential, enabling persistent account takeover.

Weakness

A capture-replay flaw exists when the design of the product makes it possible for a malicious user to sniff network traffic and bypass authentication by replaying it to the server in question to the same effect as the original message (or with minor changes).
