xml-crypto Vulnerable to XML Signature Verification Bypass via DigestValue Comment
xml-crypto is an XML digital signature and encryption library for Node.js. An attacker may be able to exploit a vulnerability in versions prior to 6.0.1, 3.2.1, and 2.1.6 to bypass authentication or authorization mechanisms in systems that rely on xml-crypto for verifying signed XML documents. The vulnerability allows an attacker to modify a valid signed XML message in a way that still passes signature verification checks. For example, it could be used to alter critical identity or access control attributes, enabling an attacker to escalate privileges or impersonate another user. Users of versions 6.0.0 and prior should upgrade to version 6.0
xml-crypto Vulnerable to XML Signature Verification Bypass via Multiple SignedInfo References
xml-crypto is an XML digital signature and encryption library for Node.js.

The vulnerability allows an attacker to modify a valid signed XML message in a way that still passes signature verification checks. For example, it could be used to alter critical identity or access control attributes, enabling an attacker with a valid account to escalate privileges or impersonate another user.

XML signature verification bypass due improper verification of signature / signature spoofing
xml-crypto is an xml digital signature and encryption library for Node.js. In affected versions the default configuration does not check authorization of the signer, it only checks the validity of the signature per section 3.2.2 of the w3 xmldsig-core-20080610 spec. As such, without additional validation steps, the default configuration allows a malicious actor to re-sign an XML document, place the certificate in a `<KeyInfo />` element, and pass `xml-crypto` default validation checks. As a result `xml-crypto` trusts by default any certificate provided via digitally signed XML document's `<KeyInfo />`. `xml-crypto` prefers to use any certific
xml-crypto's HMAC-SHA1 signatures can bypass validation via key confusion
### Impact
An attacker can inject an HMAC-SHA1 signature that is valid using only knowledge of the RSA public key. This allows bypassing signature validation.
### Patches
Version 2.0.0 has the fix.
### Workarounds
The recommendation is to upgrade. In case that is not possible remove the 'http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#hmac-sha1' entry from SignedXml.SignatureAlgorithms.
