NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xmltooling package and not the xmltooling package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

Shibboleth XMLTooling-C before 1.6.3, as used in Shibboleth Service Provider before 2.6.0 on Windows and other products, mishandles digital signatures of user attribute data, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or conduct impersonation attacks via a crafted DTD.
