| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager (TFIM) and Tivoli Federated Identity Manager Business Gateway (TFIMBG) versions 6.1.1, 6.2.0, and 6.2.1
Description
The issue arises from improper handling of signature validations based on SAML 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0, allowing remote attackers to bypass intended authentication or authorization requirements via a non-conforming SAML signature.
Recommendations
For versions 6.1.1, 6.2.0, and 6.2.1, consider implementing additional validation checks for SAML signatures to ensure conformity with SAML 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0 standards until a patch is available.
As a temporary workaround, restrict access to sensitive resources that rely on SAML-based authentication to minimize the risk of exploitation.
