|
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires that the target Drupal site has the SAML SSO - Service Provider module installed and configured to act as a SAML Service Provider consuming signed assertions, at a version from 0.0.0 up to and including 3.2.0. The attacker must craft a SAML response/assertion carrying a spoofed or manipulated signature that the module's improper verification logic (CWE-347) accepts. Limiting factors: the CVSS high attack complexity (AC:H) indicates forging an accepted signature is non-trivial and not a simple repeatable step; the precise trigger condition (e.g., signature wrapping, missing signature enforcement, or key confusion) is not described in the available sources, so the practical difficulty cannot be fully characterized. No user interaction or prior authentication is required per the vector (UI:N, PR:N). |
| Impact | This is a genuinely moderate, not high-priority, issue and the signals are internally consistent. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.8 (medium) with vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N: network-reachable and unauthenticated (PR:N), but high attack complexity (AC:H) and only low confidentiality and integrity impact with no availability impact. EPSS is very low at 0.10% (1st percentile), indicating essentially no observed or predicted mass-exploitation activity. The vulnerability is NOT listed in CISA KEV, so there is no public evidence of active exploitation - no public exploit identified at time of analysis (the only references are the Drupal security advisory and the NVD/EUVD entry; no PoC or exploit reference is present). The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month', which is a routine-patching urgency, not act_now or emergency, and this is consistent with the low EPSS, medium CVSS and absence of KEV. One point worth flagging: a signature-spoofing flaw (CWE-347) in an SSO Service Provider can in principle enable authentication impersonation, which would argue for higher integrity/confidentiality impact than the vendor's C:L/I:L rating suggests; the low scores likely reflect the high complexity of forging an accepted signature and limited practical leverage, but defenders relying on this module for identity assertions should treat the integrity dimension seriously. No SSVC automatable/technical-impact fields were supplied, so that framework cannot be cross-referenced. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker crafts a malicious SAML response or assertion with a forged or manipulated signature and submits it to a Drupal site running the SAML SSO - Service Provider module; because the module improperly verifies the cryptographic signature, the spoofed assertion is accepted as authentic, potentially letting the attacker impersonate a user or access information they should not. The high attack complexity (AC:H) means the attacker must successfully construct a signature that defeats the flawed verification, and no public exploit code or PoC reference is identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 22, 2026
Improper verification of cryptographic signatures in the Drupal SAML SSO - Service Provider module (versions 0.0.0 through 3.2.0) allows a remote attacker to spoof SAML assertions and have them accepted by a site acting as a SAML Service Provider, yielding limited confidentiality and integrity impact. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N, score 4.8) indicates no authentication or user interaction is required but that the attack is complex to carry out; the trigger is not described in the available sources. This is a genuinely moderate, not high-priority, issue: EPSS is 0.10% (1st percentile), there is no CISA KEV entry, no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and a vendor patch is available, giving a 'this_month' priority.
RemediationAI
A vendor-released patch is available per the Drupal advisory at https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2026-145; sites running SAML SSO - Service Provider at any version from 0.0.0 through 3.2.0 should update to the fixed release identified in that advisory (the specific fixed version number is not stated in the provided data, so confirm it on the advisory page before upgrading). Because the flaw is in signature verification on the Service Provider side, no configuration workaround is documented in the available sources, and the practical limiting factor remains that crafting an accepted spoofed signature is complex. Given no KEV listing and EPSS of 0.10% (1st percentile), priority is 'this_month' rather than emergency; verify module version via the Drupal status report or composer after updating.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected component is the contributed Drupal module 'SAML SSO - Service Provider', which lets a Drupal site act as a SAML 2.0 Service Provider, consuming signed assertions issued by an external Identity Provider. The root cause is CWE-347, Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature: the module's validation of the XML signature protecting a SAML response/assertion can be bypassed or satisfied with a spoofed/manipulated signature. Because the module trusts the cryptographically signed assertion as proof of identity, a broken signature check undermines the trust boundary between Identity Provider and Service Provider and can lead to forged authentication assertions. The precise mechanism - whether signature wrapping, missing enforcement of a required signature, or key/trust-material confusion - is not described in the available sources, and the CVSS AC:H rating indicates that producing a signature the module accepts is non-trivial rather than a simple repeatable step. CPE data (cpe:2.3:a:drupal:saml_sso_-_service_provider) confirms the affected package across all versions up to and including 3.2.0.
