Background
The miniorange_saml module for Drupal enables sites to function as SAML 2.0 Service Providers, facilitating user authentication through external identity providers. This module is widely used for integrating single sign-on (SSO) capabilities into Drupal applications, enhancing user experience and security. However, it has a critical vulnerability that can compromise the authentication process.
Vulnerability Detail
The vulnerability arises from the module's inadequate prevention of the reuse of previously accepted SAML assertions. An attacker who obtains a valid SAML assertion can replay it within its validity period, allowing unauthorized repeated authentication attempts. This flaw poses a significant risk, especially in environments where sensitive data is accessed based on user authentication.
How To Fix
Minimum fixed version
3.2.0

Conclusion
The CVE-2026-87952 vulnerability in the miniorange_saml module poses a significant risk by allowing the replay of valid SAML assertions. It is crucial for users of this module to update to version 3.2.0 or later to mitigate this risk. Implementing additional security measures can provide temporary relief until the update is applied.
