GitHub uncovers new Ruby-SAML Vulnerabilities allowing Account Takeover Attacks.Two high-severity security flaws have been disclosed in the open-source ruby-saml library that could allow malicious actors to bypass Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) authentication protections.

"Attackers who are in possession of a single valid signature that was created with the key used to validate SAML responses or assertions of the targeted organization can use it to construct SAML assertions themselves and are in turn able to log in as any user," GitHub Security Lab researcher Peter Stöckli said in a post.
The Microsoft-owned subsidiary also noted that the issue boils down to a "disconnect" between verification of the hash and verification of the signature, opening the door to exploitation via a parser differential.
Versions 1.12.4 and 1.18.0 also plug a remote denial-of-service (DoS) flaw when handling compressed SAML responses (CVE-2025-25293, CVSS score: 7.7).
⚠️Users are recommended to update to the latest version to safeguard against potential threats.⚠️
The findings come nearly six months after GitLab and ruby-saml moved to address another critical vulnerability (CVE-2024-45409, CVSS score: 10.0) that could also result in an authentication bypass.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/114/177/947/075/555/612/original/721ecee68734690f.jpeg "[ImageSource: GitHub]
