Debian DSA-4926-1 : lasso - security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 150310

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

It was discovered that lasso, a library which implements SAML 2.0 and Liberty Alliance standards, did not properly verify that all assertions in a SAML response were properly signed, allowing an attacker to impersonate users or bypass access control.

Solution

Upgrade the lasso packages.

For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.0-2+deb10u1.
