CVE-2026-75807
The SAML Single Sign On – SSO Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in versions up to, and including, 5.4.6. This is due to the mo_saml_login_validate() ACS handler persisting the X.509 certificate extracted from an incoming SAMLResponse into the mo_saml_required_certificate option before the signature-validation verdict is enforced, because mo_saml_find_certificate() returns false on a fingerprint mismatch rather than halting execution.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the plugin's stored IdP signing certificate with an attacker-controlled value, and subsequently forge SAML assertions for any WordPress account — including administrators — to obtain a fully privileged session. Note: The exploit requires the administrator to perform a repair after receiving the test_config_error_wpsamlerr004 error message during the test configuration.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1203Exploitation for Client Executionexecution85 % - Impacto principal
T1078Valid Accountsstealth · persistence · privilege escalation · initial access90 % - Impacto secundario
T1556Modify Authentication Processdefense impairment · persistence · credential access80 %
Requiere interacción del usuario (UI:R) para ejecutar el bypass autenticándose con SAML forjado (T1203). El atacante obtiene acceso privilegiado con cuentas de admin (T1078) manipulando la confianza de autenticación (T1556).
