Vulnerability Overview

The Cloud SAML SSO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Identity Provider Deletion due to a missing capability check on the delete_config action of the csso_handle_actions() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.19. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete any configured IdP, breaking the SSO authentication flow and causing a denial-of-service.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.0.20, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function) The product does not perform any authentication for functionality that requires a provable user identity or consumes a significant amount of resources.
