CVE-2017-11430: Improper Authentication

April 17, 2019 (updated October 9, 2019)

OmniAuth OmnitAuth-SAML 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 an attacker to potentially bypass authentication to SAML service providers.
