          This exploits an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability
          that affects Zoho ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus versions 14003 and
          below (CVE-2022-47966). Due to a dependency to an outdated library
          (Apache Santuario version 1.4.1), it is possible to execute arbitrary
          code by providing a crafted `samlResponse` XML to the ServiceDesk Plus
          SAML endpoint. Note that the target is only vulnerable if it has been
          configured with SAML-based SSO at least once in the past, regardless of
          the current SAML-based SSO status.
