CoreWCF: XML Signature Wrapping in WS-Security endorsing/supporting signature verification allows replay of captured signed messages
The attacker, with one captured signed SOAP envelope from a victim and no other privileges, can invoke arbitrary operations on the service as the victim principal for the lifetime of the captured signing key. There is no rate limit on replays. The DetectReplays setting on transport-security bindings does not mitigate the issue because the attack does not reuse the original timestamp — the fresh timestamp in the wsse:Security header is what the replay-detection logic inspects.
Fixed in CoreWCF v1.8.1 and v1.9.1
Ensure communication is protected by SSL/TLS to prevent capturing of signed SOAP envelope.
This issue can be reached over the network, attack complexity is high, an attacker needs no privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity high, availability none.
The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
CVE-2026-54783 is classified as CWE-294: Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay. A captured authentication exchange can be replayed later because it is not bound to a single use.
