CVE-2018-5387: Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature

May 13, 2022 (updated July 19, 2023)

Wizkunde SAMLBase may incorrectly utilize the results of XML DOM traversal and canonicalization APIs in such a way that an attacker may be able to manipulate the SAML data without invalidating the cryptographic signature, allowing the attack to potentially bypass authentication to SAML service providers.
