Opened: Apr 29, 2015

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Assertions that are passed from a SAML Identity Provider (IdP) to a SAML Service Provider (SP) contain a number of timestamps to prevent replay attacks. When assertions are processed by BIG-IP as SP, most of these timestamps are verified, except for SubjectConfirmationData NotOnOrAfter.

Impact

As a result, BIG-IP as SP can accept an assertion with an expired SubjectConfirmationData NotOnOrAfter timestamp.

Conditions

This happens when the SubjectConfirmationData NotOnOrAfter timestamp is expired by the time that the BIG-IP as SP processes the assertion.

Workaround

There is no workaround at this time.

Fix Information

None
