CVE-2026-14917 Sep 16, 10:06 HIGH PATCH This Week

SAML authentication bypass in Kong Enterprise Gateway allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to impersonate arbitrary users, including administrators, by submitting a crafted SAML response containing an unsigned assertion. Exploitation is strictly gated by a non-default configuration: the Kong SAML plugin's validate_assertion_signature option must have been explicitly set to false, since it defaults to true - default deployments are not affected. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not listed in CISA KEV; patch status is Vendor-released patch: Kong Gateway 3.15.0.3.
