Vendor / product: Redhat — build of keycloak

A flaw was found in Keycloak. This access control vulnerability in Keycloak's OpenID Connect (OIDC) token introspection endpoint allows a confidential client to bypass audience restrictions.

This issue can be exploited remotely by any confidential client in the realm with valid credentials.
