The Service Provider (SP) in PicketLink before 2.7.0 does not ensure that it is a member of an Audience element when an AudienceRestriction is specified, which allows remote attackers to log in to other users' accounts via a crafted SAML assertion. NOTE: this identifier has been SPLIT per ADT2 due to different vulnerability types. See CVE-2015-6254 for lack of validation for the Destination attribute in a Response element in a SAML assertion.

Security readout for executives and security teams

PicketLink Service Provider versions before 2.7.0 may accept a SAML assertion even when the service is not listed as an intended audience. In affected single sign-on deployments, a remote attacker could potentially sign in as another user using a crafted assertion. The source bundle does not provide CVSS scoring or product-version details beyond PicketLink. Exposure is most likely in legacy Java applications or Red Hat-distributed products using PicketLink SP before 2.7.0 for SAML SSO. Exact affected Red Hat product versions are not enumerated in the provided bundle. Prioritize remediation for internet-facing or workforce SSO systems because the stated impact is account takeover. Legacy systems deserve focused review, especially where PicketLink is embedded and not obvious in top-level inventories. Mitigation focus: Upgrade PicketLink to 2.7.0 or later where applicable.; Apply the relevant Red Hat security advisory packages.; Check vendor guidance for products embedding PicketLink..
