Keycloak theme resource endpoint lets unauthenticated users exhaust disk space

Anyone can send fake requests to a login server and fill its disk, stopping it.

Summary

Keycloak's theme resource endpoint uses unvalidated theme names as keys for an on-disk gzip cache. An unauthenticated attacker sending many requests with fabricated theme names can fill the disk and disrupt service, and the damage persists across restarts.

What to do
