Summary ruby-saml is susceptible to remote Denial of Service (DoS) with compressed SAML responses.
Ruby-saml uses zlib to decompress SAML responses in case they're compressed. It is possible to bypass the message size check with a compressed assertion since the message size is checked before inflation and not after.
Impact This issue may lead to remote Denial of Service (DoS).
Summary An authentication bypass vulnerability was found in ruby-saml due to a parser differential. ReXML and Nokogiri parse XML differently, the parsers can generate entirely different document structures from the same XML input. That allows an attacker to be able to execute a Signature Wrapping attack.
Impact This issue may lead to authentication bypass.
