There are 2 new Critical Signature Wrapping Vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-25292, CVE-2025-25291) and a potential DDOS Moderated Vulneratiblity (CVE-2025-25293) affecting ruby-saml, a dependency of omniauth-saml. The fix will be applied to ruby-saml and released 12 March 2025, under version 1.18.0. Please upgrade the ruby-saml requirement to v1.18.0.
ruby-saml, the dependent SAML gem of omniauth-saml has a signature wrapping vulnerability in <= v1.12.0 and v1.13.0 to v1.16.0 , see https://github.com/SAML-Toolkits/ruby-saml/security/advisories/GHSA-jw9c-mfg7-9rx2 As a result, omniauth-saml created a new release by upgrading ruby-saml to the patched versions v1.17.
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.
