A flaw was found in keycloak. Directories can be created prior to the Java process creating them in the temporary directory, but with wider user permissions, allowing the attacker to have access to the contents that keycloak stores in this directory. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity.
CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.3. CVSS Attack Vector: local. CVSS Attack Complexity: low. CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L).

The following code uses a temporary file for storing intermediate data gathered from the network before it is processed.
...
while((recv(sock,recvbuf,DATA_SIZE, 0) > 0)&(amt!=0)) amt = fwrite(recvbuf,1,DATA_SIZE,tmp);This otherwise unremarkable code is vulnerable to a number of different attacks because it relies on an insecure method for creating temporary files. The vulnerabilities introduced by this function and others are described in the following sections. The most egregious security problems related to temporary file creation have occurred on Unix-based operating systems, but Windows applications have parallel risks. This section includes a discussion of temporary file creation on both Unix and Windows systems. Methods and behaviors can vary between systems, but the fundamental risks introduced by each are reasonably constant.
