Identity theft via unvalidated SAML response destination
Published May 7, 2026 · Updated May 7, 2026
Information disclosure in Admidio before 5.0.9 allows remote attackers to steal signed SAML assertions via crafted AuthnRequests. In SAMLService.php, handleSSORequest() copies the request's AssertionConsumerServiceURL into the response Destination and Recipient without comparing smc_acs_url. A logged-in user's browser must process the request, and knowing a registered SP Entity ID is sufficient when request signing is disabled by default.
