WEB APPLICATION VULNERABILITIES Standard & Premium

No SAML Respose signature check

Description

The web application uses SAML. The web application's SAML Consumer Service doesn't check SAML Response signature.
An authenticated attacker may be able to use it to escalate privileges to a high privileged user or to takeover accounts of other users in the application.

Remediation

Change configuration of the SAML service to require a valid signature for SAML Response
