{"id":"CVE-2025-29774","aliases":["GHSA-9p8x-f768-wp2g"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2025-29774","summary":"xml-crypto Vulnerable to XML Signature Verification Bypass via Multiple SignedInfo References","details":"xml-crypto is an XML digital signature and encryption library for Node.js. An attacker may be able to exploit a vulnerability in versions prior to 6.0.1, 3.2.1, and 2.1.6 to bypass authentication or authorization mechanisms in systems that rely on xml-crypto for verifying signed XML documents. The vulnerability allows an attacker to modify a valid signed XML message in a way that still passes signature verification checks. For example, it could be used to alter critical identity or access control attributes, enabling an attacker with a valid account to escalate privileges or impersonate another user. Users of versions 6.0.0 and prior should upgrade to version 6.0.1 to receive a fix. Those who are still using v2.x or v3.x should upgrade to patched versions 2.1.6 or 3.2.1, respectively.","published":"2025-03-14T17:05:53.943Z","modified":"2026-07-15T01:48:52.235011743Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":1,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"xml-crypto","fixedVersion":"6.0.1"},{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"xml-crypto","fixedVersion":"3.2.1"},{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"xml-crypto","fixedVersion":"2.1.6"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/node-saml/xml-crypto/commit/28f92218ecbb8dcbd238afa4efbbd50302aa9aed","label":"node-saml/xml-crypto@28f9221"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/node-saml/xml-crypto/releases/tag/v2.1.6"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/node-saml/xml-crypto/releases/tag/v3.2.1"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/node-saml/xml-crypto/releases/tag/v6.0.1"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/29xxx/CVE-2025-29774.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/node-saml/xml-crypto/security/advisories/GHSA-9p8x-f768-wp2g"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-29774"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/node-saml/xml-crypto/commit/28f92218ecbb8dcbd238afa4efbbd50302aa9aed"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/node-saml/xml-crypto/commit/886dc63a8b4bb5ae1db9f41c7854b171eb83aa98"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/node-saml/xml-crypto/commit/8ac6118ee7978b46aa56b82cbcaa5fca58c93a07"},{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"https://workos.com/blog/samlstorm"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-07-15T01:48:52.235011743Z"}}
