Audit federated single sign-on for assertions a relying party should not trust: a SAML response whose signature is not verified over the right element so a wrapped or altered assertion passes, an OIDC ID token whose issuer, audience, or nonce is unchecked, a relying party that accepts an assertion for any user because the subject or email is trusted without binding, and a federation that honors an identity provider or signing key it should not. Covers SAML and OpenID Connect where a relying…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Auditing SAML and OIDC federation trust: the assertion is only as good as its verification

Federated login moves the authentication decision to an identity provider and hands the relying party a signed
assertion, a SAML response or an OIDC ID token, that says who the user is. The relying party's entire security
then rests on verifying that assertion correctly, and the ways to verify it incorrectly are well worn. SAML
signature wrapping slips an unsigned, attacker-authored assertion alongside a signed one so the application
reads the wrong element; a signature checked over the wrong scope, or not at all, accepts a tampered response.
An OIDC ID token whose issuer, audience, or nonce goes unchecked can come from the wrong provider, be minted
for a different application, or be replayed. And a relying party that trusts a subject or email in the
assertion without binding it to the verified issuer will authenticate any user an attacker names. The audit is
not whether federation is configured but whether a forged or misbound assertion is refused. You audit this by
testing each validation the relying party must perform on the assertion.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add unboundcompute/security-agent-skills/auditing-saml-and-oidc-federation-trust@sha256:83ed94736b6e326e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260829.b60f9b2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
