critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436415

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Node-SAML is a SAML library not dependent on any frameworks that runs in Node. In versions 5.0.1 and
 below, Node-SAML loads the assertion from the (unsigned) original response document. This is different
 than the parts that are verified when checking signature. This allows an attacker to modify authentication
 details within a valid SAML assertion. For example, in one attack it is possible to remove any character
 from the SAML assertion username. This issue is fixed in version 5.1.0. (CVE-2025-54369)
