CVE-2025-7045: CWE-306 Missing Authentication for Critical Function in cloudinfrastructureservices Cloud SAML SSO – Single Sign On Login
The Cloud SAML SSO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Identity Provider Deletion due to a missing capability check on the delete_config action of the csso_handle_actions() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.19. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete any configured IdP, breaking the SSO authentication flow and causing a denial-of-service.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Cloud SAML SSO plugin for WordPress contains a missing authentication vulnerability (CWE-306) in the csso_handle_actions() function, specifically on the delete_config action. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to delete any configured Identity Provider (IdP), thereby breaking the SSO authentication process and causing denial-of-service. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 1.0.19 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.5, indicating a medium severity. There is no indication of known exploits in the wild or available patches at this time.
Potential Impact
An attacker can cause denial-of-service by deleting configured Identity Providers without authentication, disrupting the SSO login process for legitimate users. There is no direct confidentiality impact, but integrity and availability are affected due to the unauthorized deletion of IdP configurations.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the WordPress administrative interface and monitor for unauthorized changes to SSO configurations. Avoid exposing the plugin's management endpoints to untrusted networks.
