Description

SuperTokens Core is an open source authentication server. From 11.3.0 until 11.3.7, 11.4.7, and 12.0.10, SAML.verifySamlResponseSignature calls OpenSAML SignatureValidator.validate without first applying SAMLSignatureProfileValidator. The Core can therefore accept a cryptographically valid signature that references a different XML element from the Response or Assertion whose NameID and attributes are used for authentication. An ordinary user of the configured identity provider can move a genuinely signed element elsewhere in the document while supplying an attacker-authored identity-bearing element, causing XML Signature Wrapping authentication as another IdP user. Both response-level and assertion-level signing paths are affected, and SP-initiated login remains reachable without enabling allowIDPInitiatedLogin. This issue is fixed in versions 11.3.7, 11.4.7, and 12.0.10.
