A vulnerability has been discovered in the Auth0 passport-wsfed-saml2 library affecting versions < 3.0.5. This vulnerability allows an attacker to impersonate another user and potentially elevate their privileges if the SAML identity provider does not sign the full SAML response (e.g., only signs the assertion within the response).
A vulnerability has been discovered in the Auth0 passport-wsfed-saml2 library affecting versions < 3.0.5. This vulnerability allows an attacker to impersonate another user and potentially elevate their privileges if the SAML identity provider does not sign the full SAML response (e.g., only signs the assertion within the response).
## Information Please note that this is not a new disclosure, and is previously reported in our [SECURITY-NOTICE.md](https://github.com/auth0/passport-wsfed-saml2/commit/520b9fc0bb4249ce83bec47e30153419f086ab70 ) which we removed in favor of github advisory. # Overview This vulnerability allows an attacker to impersonate another user and potentially elevate their privileges if the SAML identity provider: - signs SAML response and signs assertion - does not sign SAML response and signs assertion # Am I affected? You may be affected if you use SAML2 protocol with passport-wsfed-saml2 versions below 3.0.5 and your SAML identity Provider: 1. signs SAML response and signs assertion; or 2. does not sign SAML response and signs assertion # How do I fix it? You may fix this vulnerability by upgrading your library to version 3.0.5 or above. # Will the fix impact my users? This fix patches the library that your application runs, but will not impact your users, their current state, or any existing sessions.

Se ha descubierto una vulnerabilidad en la biblioteca passport-wsfed-saml2 en Auth0 que afecta a versiones anteriores a la 3.0.5. Esta vulnerabilidad permite que un atacante suplante a otro usuario y que, posiblemente, eleve sus privilegios si el proveedor de identidad de SAML no firma la respuesta SAML completa (por ejemplo, solo firma la aserción en la respuesta).
