CVE-2026-54774 — Vulnerability in CoreWCF.Primitives — CVE Details

HIGH

CoreWCF: SamlSerializer skips SignatureValue verification when SAML signing token is not an X.509 certificate

Published June 19, 2026Updated June 19, 2026Source: osv

Summary

### Impact When a service is configured to validate SAML tokens using a method other than X.509 certificate signing, the final signature verification is skipped. #### Preconditions The service is configured to authenticate using SAML tokens and an out of band token resolver (commonly the IssuerTokenResolver of IssuedTokenServiceCredential) holds a non-X.509 SecurityToken whose key identifier the attacker can reference in the assertion’s `<KeyInfo>` - for example a `BinarySecretSecurityToken` representing the symmetric proof key issued by a WS-Trust symmetric-key holder-of-key STS. ### Patches Fixed in CoreWCF v1.8.1 and v1.9.1 ### Workarounds None
