Doc Type: If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:
It was found that Keycloak's Node.js adapter did not properly verify the web token received from the server in its backchannel logout. An attacker with local access could use this to construct a malicious web token setting an NBF parameter that could prevent user access indefinitely.

Description Marian Rehak 2019-04-25 09:08:49 UTC 
The admin backchannel logout route (/k_logout) doesn't verify the signature of the JWT it receives from Keycloak. This causes to the adapter to update the grant manager with a NBF in the future. This effectively logs users out of the app and prevents them from logging in again. Since the tokens received from the code exchange will appear to be in the future, this could be used maliciously against applications using the adapter.
