New Silver SAML Attack | Threats to Entra ID Security

Attention all Entra ID users!?

A new security vulnerability called the Silver SAML attack has been discovered, putting your organization's data at risk.

This attack exploits how Entra ID handles Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), a common method for authenticating users into applications. By compromising externally generated certificates used for SAML signing, attackers can forge responses and gain unauthorized access to critical applications.

While the severity is rated moderate, the potential consequences can be severe. Attackers could steal sensitive data, disrupt operations, or launch further attacks within your network.

Here's what you need to know

The Silver SAML attack targets Entra ID, unlike its predecessor, Golden SAML, which exploited Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS).

Attackers can exploit this vulnerability if your organization uses externally generated certificates for SAML signing.

Improper management of signing certificates further increases the risk.

So, what can you do to protect yourself?

  • Minimize the use of externally generated certificates for SAML signing.
  • Implement strict security measures for managing signing certificates, including secure storage and access controls.
  • Stay vigilant and monitor for suspicious activity.
