Public exploit code is available. Proof-of-concept or working exploit code for CVE-2026-15013 is indexed in GitHub PoC. Expect opportunistic scanning and exploitation attempts — prioritize remediation even though it is not (yet) in the CISA KEV catalog.
The SAML Single Sign On – SSO Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass via SAML Signature Algorithm Confusion in all versions up to, and including, 5.4.3. The vulnerability exists because Mo_SAML_Utilities::mo_saml_cast_key() reads the SignatureMethod Algorithm attribute directly from the attacker-controlled SAMLResponse parameter rather than enforcing the locally configured algorithm, causing the plugin to recast the IdP's RSA public key as an HMAC-SHA1 shared secret and validate the forged signature against it. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to forge a SAML assertion targeting any WordPress account — including administrators — obtain valid WordPress authentication cookies, and achieve full administrator-level account takeover.
