When Keycloak is started with --features-disabled=account,account-api, the Account REST API is only partially disabled. Five endpoints under the versioned path /account/v1alpha1 remain fully functional — including both read and write operations — because they lack the checkAccountApiEnabled() gate that correctly blocks four other endpoints in the same REST service class. The user needs to have permissions to use the API.
Weakness
The web application does not adequately enforce appropriate authorization on all restricted URLs, scripts, or files.
