CVE-2017-12869
The multiauth module in SimpleSAMLphp 1.14.13 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass authentication context restrictions and use an authentication source defined in config/authsources.php via vectors related to improper validation of user input.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.35%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
