Shibboleth < 3.5.0.1 Forged Messages

medium Nessus Plugin ID 233773

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host has a single-sign-on service provider installed which is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The version of Shibboleth Service Provider installed on the remote is prior to 3.5.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability. The OpenSAML C++ library before 3.3.1 allows forging of signed SAML messages via parameter manipulation (when using SAML bindings that rely on non-XML signatures).

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Shibboleth Service Provider version 3.5.0.1 or later.
