affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-7364-1 advisory.

    Alexander Tan discovered that the OpenSAML C++ library was susceptible to forging of signed SAML messages.
    An attacker could possibly use this issue to gain unauthorized access to a system and manipulate sensitive
    information.
