# SAMLSPServer Class

The SAMLSPServer class represents a SAML service provider.

## Syntax

```text
class secureblackbox.SAMLSPServer
```

## Remarks

The Service Provider in the SAML exchange flow represents the web server that receives and accepts authentication assertions issued by the Identity Provider for single sign-on (SSO). Most commonly, an SP server is part of the application responsible for communicating with an Identity Provider to establish the authenticity of application users.

SAMLSPServer provides easy means of integrating the SAML Service Provider functionality into your application. It presents a fully-features SP endpoint with its own HTTP(S) and assertion validation engines.

Please find below a step-by-step guide on setting up your own SAML SP endpoint.

- Register the IdP metadata using the [import_settings](#import_settings-method) method. Most IDPs let you download their metadata in XML format. The metadata file contains general parameters of the IdP endpoint, such as its web address and algorithm requirements.

```text
  server.ImportSettings(metadataBytes, false); // contains "<?xml version="1.0"?><md:EntityDescriptor ID="ab12" ... </md:EntityDescriptor>";
```

- Configure the main server capabilities:

```text
  // public server endpoint (use "https://" and/or port 443 if required)
  server.URL = "http://sp.myapp.com";
  server.Port = 80;

  // IdP triggers this URL to pull metadata
  server.MetadataURL = '/sp/metadata';

  // ACS is th "main" SP endpoint that receives assertions from the IdP
  server.AssertionConsumerService = '/sp/AssertionConsumerService';
  server.SPToIDPBinding = csbtRedirect; // the SP will use HTTP redirect to forward the browser to the IdP when required
  server.AssertionConsumerServiceBindings = 'POST'; // and we want the IdP to use POST to submit its assertions
  server.PreferredIDPToSPBinding = csbtPOST;

  // Single logout service setup
  server.SingleLogoutService = '/sp/SingleLogoutService';
  server.SingleLogoutServiceBindings = 'Redirect,POST,Artifact';
  server.LogoutPage = '/sp/logout';
  server.RedirectOnLogoutPage = 'https://www.nsoftware.com';

  // The document root of the server on the local system
  server.BaseDir = "D:\\Inetpub\\SAMLSP";

  // Security parameters: indicating that we want to sign both
  // the metadata and the requests
  server.SignAuthnRequests = true;
  server.SignMetadata = true;

  // We need to attach certificates to be able to sign.
  // Assume we have loaded our signing certificate into
  // a CertificateManager object.
  server.SigningCertificate = mgr.Certificate;
  server.MetaSigningCertificate = mgr.Certificate;
```

- Personalize the server:

```text
  server.Config("OrganizationName=My Organization Ltd");
  server.Config("OrganizationDisplayName=My Organization Pet Supplies");
  server.Config("OrganizationURL=http://myorg.com");
  server.Config("SigDigestMethod=http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#sha256");
  server.Config("SigMethod=http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha256");
  server.Config("WantAssertionsSigned=true");
```

- Optionally, save metadata to an XML file. This will let you send/upload it to the IdP, so they could set your SP up. Some IdPs can download the metadata right from your SP using the [metadata_url](#metadata_url-property) that you've provided above, in which case saving it to a file is not necessary.

```text
  server.SaveMetadata("my_metadata.xml");
```

 You are now ready to start the server:

```text
  server.Start();
```

 The server should now be running on the local system, listening to incoming connections on the port that you have specified above (80). Use your browser to check if the server is responding by navigating to the metadata URL (http://127.0.0.1:80/sp/metadata). If the server has been set up right, you should see something like this:

 Now let us actually try to use the SAML functionality. Copy an arbitrary file - for example, a recent photo of your cat - to the directory you provided earlier via the [base_dir](#base_dir-property) property (D:\Inetpub\SAMLSP). Having copied the file (suppose it is called clifford.jpg), try to access it in your browser by navigating to http://127.0.0.1:80/clifford.jpg.

This is where SAML kicks in. Since you are not authenticated for the SP server yet (we have just launched it, so no one is), the server redirects your browser to the IdP endpoint for authentication. The address of the IdP is taken from the their_metadata.xml file that you have loaded at the very beginning.

*Note*: you can configure which resources to restrict access to using the [protected_resources](#protected_resources-property) property. If [protected_resources](#protected_resources-property) is empty, the server considers all the files in [base_dir](#base_dir-property) and its subfolders to be protected.

It is now the IdP services turn to authenticate you. Most IdPs on this stage will present you with a login form. Yet, if you have signed in recently, the IdP may still remember you, in which case it will skip the form and proceed directly to the next step. After establishing and proving your identity, the IdP will generate an *assertion*, a signed proof that effectively states that the IdP knows who you are and have verified your identity rigorously. Think of the assertion as your *unique pass* to the resources protected by the SP. The IdP will then submit that assertion back to the SP at its AssertionConsumerService endpoint, again using your browser.

*Note* that the SP service knows nothing about how IdP authenticates you. All the SP is interested in is an assertion.

 If the assertion is well-formed and its signature is valid, the SAML exchange completes. At this point the SP accepts the assertion and creates a *session* for you. You can now access the resources protected by the SP for as long as the session lasts. If this step succeeds, you should see the photo of your cat in your browser.

# external_crypto_key_id property

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

## Syntax

```text
def get_external_crypto_key_id() -> str: ...
def set_external_crypto_key_id(value: str) -> None: ...
external_crypto_key_id = property(get_external_crypto_key_id, set_external_crypto_key_id)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

Asynchronous DCAuth-driven communication requires that parties authenticate each other with a secret pre-shared cryptographic key. This provides an extra protection layer for the protocol and diminishes the risk of the private key becoming abused by foreign parties. Use this property to provide the pre-shared key identifier, and use [external_crypto_key_secret](#external_crypto_key_secret-property) to pass the key itself.

The same KeyID/KeySecret pair should be used on the DCAuth side for the signing requests to be accepted.

Note: The KeyID/KeySecret scheme is very similar to the AuthKey scheme used in various Cloud service providers to authenticate users.

Example:

```text
  signer.ExternalCrypto.KeyID = "MainSigningKey";
  signer.ExternalCrypto.KeySecret = "abcdef0123456789";
```

# external_crypto_key_secret property

The pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

## Syntax

```text
def get_external_crypto_key_secret() -> str: ...
def set_external_crypto_key_secret(value: str) -> None: ...
external_crypto_key_secret = property(get_external_crypto_key_secret, set_external_crypto_key_secret)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The pre-shared key used for DC request authentication. This key must be set and match the key used by the DCAuth counterpart for the scheme to work.

Read more about configuring authentication in the [external_crypto_key_id](#external_crypto_key_id-property) topic.

Authority Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows identification of certificates belonging to the same issuer, but with different public keys. It is a de-facto standard to include this extension in all certificates to facilitate chain building.

This setting cannot be set when generating a certificate as it always derives from another certificate property. [CertificateManager](#CertificateManager) generates this setting automatically if enough information is available to it: for self-signed certificates, this value is copied from the [pinned_client_cert_subject_key_id](#pinned_client_cert_subject_key_id-property) setting, and for lower-level certificates, from the parent certificate's subject key ID extension.

The *pinned_client_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [pinned_client_cert_count](#pinned_client_cert_count-property) property.

Contains a unique identifier of the certificate's cryptographic key.

## Syntax

```text
def get_pinned_client_cert_subject_key_id(pinned_client_cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

Contains a unique identifier of the certificate's cryptographic key.

Subject Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows a specific public key to be associated with a certificate holder. Typically, subject key identifiers of CA certificates are recorded as respective CA key identifiers in the subordinate certificates that they issue, which facilitates chain building.

The [pinned_client_cert_subject_key_id](#pinned_client_cert_subject_key_id-property) and [pinned_client_cert_ca_key_id](#pinned_client_cert_ca_key_id-property) properties of self-signed certificates typically contain identical values, as in that specific case, the issuer and the subject are the same entity.

The *pinned_client_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [pinned_client_cert_count](#pinned_client_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# tls_revocation_check property

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_revocation_check() -> int: ...
def set_tls_revocation_check(value: int) -> None: ...

```

## Default Value

1

## Remarks

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

Revocation checking is necessary to ensure the integrity of the chain and obtain up-to-date certificate validity and trustworthiness information.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| crcNone | 0 | No revocation checking. |
| crcAuto | 1 | Automatic mode selection. Currently this maps to crcAnyOCSPOrCRL, but it may change in the future. |
| crcAllCRL | 2 | All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAllOCSP | 3 | All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAllCRLAndOCSP | 4 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAnyCRL | 5 | All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. |
| crcAnyOCSP | 6 | All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. |
| crcAnyCRLOrOCSP | 7 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first. |
| crcAnyOCSPOrCRL | 8 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. OCSP endpoints are checked first. |

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed for every certificate in the chain. Typically certificates come with two types of revocation information sources: CRL (certificate revocation lists) and OCSP responders. CRLs are static objects periodically published by the CA at some online location. OCSP responders are active online services maintained by the CA that can provide up-to-date information on certificate statuses in near real time.

There are some conceptual differences between the two. CRLs are normally larger in size. Their use involves some latency because there is normally some delay between the time when a certificate was revoked and the time the subsequent CRL mentioning that is published. The benefits of CRL is that the same object can provide statuses for all certificates issued by a particular CA, and that the whole technology is much simpler than OCSP (and thus is supported by more CAs).

This setting lets you adjust the validation course by including or excluding certain types of revocation sources from the validation process. The crcAnyOCSPOrCRL setting (give preference to the faster OCSP route and only demand one source to succeed) is a good choice for most typical validation environments. The "crcAll*" modes are much stricter, and may be used in scenarios where bulletproof validity information is essential.

NOTE: If no CRL or OCSP endpoints are provided by the CA, the revocation check will be considered successful. This is because the CA chose not to supply revocation information for its certificates, meaning they are considered irrevocable.

NOTE: Within each of the above settings, if any retrieved CRL or OCSP response indicates that the certificate has been revoked, the revocation check fails.

# tls_server_cert_count property

The number of records in the TLSServerCert arrays.

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_server_cert_count() -> int: ...
def set_tls_server_cert_count(value: int) -> None: ...
tls_server_cert_count = property(get_tls_server_cert_count, set_tls_server_cert_count)
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

This property controls the size of the following arrays:

- [tls_server_cert_bytes](#tls_server_cert_bytes-property)
- [tls_server_cert_handle](#tls_server_cert_handle-property)

The array indices start at *0* and end at *tls_server_cert_count - 1*.

# tls_server_cert_bytes property

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_server_cert_bytes(tls_server_cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

The *tls_server_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [tls_server_cert_count](#tls_server_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# tls_server_cert_handle property

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object.

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_server_cert_handle(tls_server_cert_index: int) -> int: ...
def set_tls_server_cert_handle(tls_server_cert_index: int, value: int) -> None: ...
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation.

```text
  pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());
```

The *tls_server_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [tls_server_cert_count](#tls_server_cert_count-property) property.

# url property

Specifies the base URL of this SP server.

## Syntax

```text
def get_url() -> str: ...
def set_url(value: str) -> None: ...
url = property(get_url, set_url)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Use this property to set the base URL for this Service Provider (SP) server.

Please make sure the URL you provide here aligns well with the relative endpoint resource paths, such as AssertionConsumerService or ArtifactResolutionService. The two parts (the URL and the endpoint paths) are concatenated to produce full endpoint URLs. Please double check that only one of the parts includes the slash character in it: either the endpoint paths at the beginning (the default configuration), or the base URL at the end.

# add_id_p_service method

Registers an IdP service in the IdPServices list.

## Syntax

```text
def add_id_p_service(service: int, binding_type: int, location: str, priority: int, index: int) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to add an entry to the list of known external SAML services and their locations.

The service provider needs to be knowledgeable of the external IdP services that it needs to use. That information can either be provided in the form of a metadata file (see [import_settings](#import_settings-method)), or registered manually using this method.

When using this method, make sure to register all the services you expect to work with. Note that if the same IdP service is available through several different transports (*bindings*), you will need to register each (service, transport) pair individually:

```text
  sp.AddIdPService(spsSingleSignOnService, csbtPOST, "https://idp.identityserver/saml/sso", -1, -1);
  sp.AddIdPService(spsSingleSignOnService, csbtRedirect, "https://idp.identityserver/saml/sso", -1, -1);
```

Use the *Service* parameter to specify the service to register:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| spsUnknown | 0 | The service is of unknown or unsupported type |
| spsAssertionConsumerService | 1 | The assertion consumer service (SP side only) |
| spsSingleLogoutService | 2 | The single logout service (SP or IdP sides) |
| spsArtifactResolutionService | 3 | The artifact resolution service (SP or IdP sides) |
| spsAttributeQueryService | 4 | The attribute query service (IdP side only) |
| spsSingleSignOnService | 5 | The single sign-on service (IdP side only) |

The *BindingType* specifies the transport type that the service being registered should use. Note that not every kind of service supports every kind of transport. It is typical for SSO and SLS services to use POST or Redirect bindings. This information is typically provided by the identity provider.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| csbtNone | 0 | TBD |
| csbtSOAP | 1 | TBD |
| csbtPAOS | 2 | TBD |
| csbtRedirect | 3 | TBD |
| csbtPOST | 4 | TBD |
| csbtArtifact | 5 | TBD |

The *Location* parameter specifies the absolute URL of the respective SAML web endpoint.

The *Priority* parameter specifies the relative priority of the transport among several identical services. The actual transport used may be different to the specified priority, as the request received from the SP (such as AuthnRequest) may explicitly request a specific transport to use.

The *Index* parameter specifies the index of the endpoint, which is a unique value assigned to each endpoint. Pass -1 unless you want to provide the index explicitly.

Note that this method registers a *known* service - something that the service provider should be aware of. This is different to the purpose of the [add_sp_service](#add_sp_service-method) method, which registers the service provider's *own* service.

# add_sp_service method

Registers an SP service in the SPServices list.

## Syntax

```text
def add_sp_service(service: int, binding_type: int, location: str, priority: int, index: int) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to add an entry to the list of SAML services and their locations provided by the SP.

A service provider can provide a variety of SAML services through a selection of endpoints, each supporting one or more transports (or *bindings*). Typical examples are an assertion consumer service or a single logout service, each of which can be served independently on the same or different endpoints, via a POST or Redirect transports (or both).

Each add_sp_service call registers a single service offered via a single transport. If you would like to have the same service to be available using several different transports, you need to register each combination individually, even if the service runs at the same web endpoint:

```text
  sp.AddSPService(spsAssertionConsumerService, csbtPOST, '/saml/acs', -1, 1);
  sp.AddSPService(spsAssertionConsumerService, csbtRedirect, '/saml/acs', -1, 2);
```

Use the *Service* parameter to specify the service to register:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| spsUnknown | 0 | The service is of unknown or unsupported type |
| spsAssertionConsumerService | 1 | The assertion consumer service (SP side only) |
| spsSingleLogoutService | 2 | The single logout service (SP or IdP sides) |
| spsArtifactResolutionService | 3 | The artifact resolution service (SP or IdP sides) |
| spsAttributeQueryService | 4 | The attribute query service (IdP side only) |
| spsSingleSignOnService | 5 | The single sign-on service (IdP side only) |

The *BindingType* specifies the transport type that the service being registered should use. Note that not every kind of service supports every kind of transport. It is typical for ACS service to use POST binding (due to the size of assertions), and SLS to either use POST or Redirect.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| csbtNone | 0 | TBD |
| csbtSOAP | 1 | TBD |
| csbtPAOS | 2 | TBD |
| csbtRedirect | 3 | TBD |
| csbtPOST | 4 | TBD |
| csbtArtifact | 5 | TBD |

The *Location* parameter specifies an absolute or relative path to the service within the SAML web service:

```text
  sp.AddSPService(spsAssertionConsumerService, csbtPOST, 'https://app.com/saml/acs', -1, 1); // absolute path
  sp.AddSPService(spsAssertionConsumerService, csbtRedirect, '/saml/acs', -1, 2); // relative path
```

The *Priority* parameter is nominal as it only specifies the relative priority of the transport in the SP metadata. The actual transport used, among those supported, depends on the choice of the external identity provider. Pass -1 to stick with the default priority.

The *Index* parameter specifies the index of the endpoint, which is a unique value assigned to each endpoint. Pass -1 unless you want to provide the index explicitly.

Note that this method registers the service provider's *own* service - something that the service provider provides. This is different to [add_id_p_service](#add_id_p_service-method) method, which registers a foreign identity provider's service - something that the service provider should *be aware of*.

# cleanup method

Cleans up the server environment by purging expired sessions and cleaning caches.

## Syntax

```text
def cleanup() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Call this method while the server is active to clean up the environment allocated for the server by releasing unused resources and cleaning caches.

# config method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

```text
def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#samlspserver-config-settings) for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#samlspserver-config-settings), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# do_action method

Performs an additional action.

## Syntax

```text
def do_action(action_id: str, action_params: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

do_action is a generic method available in every class. It is used to perform an additional action introduced after the product major release. The list of actions is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier (case insensitive) of the action is provided in the *ActionID* parameter.

*ActionParams* contains the value of a single parameter, or a list of multiple parameters for the action in the form of *PARAM1=VALUE1;PARAM2=VALUE2;...*.

Common ActionIDs:

|  |  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Action | Parameters | Returned value | Description |
| ResetTrustedListCache | none | none | Clears the cached list of trusted lists. |
| ResetCertificateCache | none | none | Clears the cached certificates. |
| ResetCRLCache | none | none | Clears the cached CRLs. |
| ResetOCSPResponseCache | none | none | Clears the cached OCSP responses. |

# drop_client method

Terminates a client connection.

## Syntax

```text
def drop_client(connection_id: int, forced: bool) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Call this method to shut down a connected client. *Forced* indicates whether the connection should be closed in a graceful manner.

# export_settings method

Saves the SP or IdP configuration to an XML metadata file.

## Syntax

```text
def export_settings(sp: bool) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to save the Service Provider (SP) or Identity Provider (IdP) configuration in the form of XML metadata. The SP metadata file may then be transferred to identity providers (IdP) to let them know about the SP configuration.

Adjust the provider configuration as required in sp_settings or id_p_settings object before calling this method. Assign meta_signing_certificate to enforce signing of the metadata XML.

# get_client_buffer method

Acquires a piece of operation data.

## Syntax

```text
def get_client_buffer(connection_id: int, handle: str) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to obtain a piece of data relevant to a transfer operation in a thread-safe way.

A typical place to call this method is inside the [on_resource_write](#on_resource_write-event) event handler, when implementing customized file transfers.

# get_provider_property method

Returns the value of a custom provider property.

## Syntax

```text
def get_provider_property(name: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

This method, together with [set_provider_property](#set_provider_property-method), provides an extensible way of managing the Service Provider's settings that are not available through the primary properties of the component. As SAML usage scenarios evolve and new providers appear, the list of supported properties can be extended.

The following properties are currently supported:

- ContactPerson
- OrganizationName
- OrganizationDisplayName
- OrganizationURL
- OrganizationLang

# get_request_bytes method

Returns the contents of the connected client's HTTP request.

## Syntax

```text
def get_request_bytes(connection_id: int, request_filter: str) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to get the body of the client's HTTP request. Note that the body of GET and HEAD requests is empty. The method returns the requested content.

# get_request_header method

Returns a request header value.

## Syntax

```text
def get_request_header(connection_id: int, header_name: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to get the value of a request header. A good place to call this method is a request-marking event, such as on_get_request or on_post_request.

# get_response_header method

Returns a response header value.

## Syntax

```text
def get_response_header(connection_id: int, header_name: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to get the value of a response header. A good place to call this method is on_headers_prepared event. Call the method with empty *HeaderName* to get the whole response header.

# get_session_property method

Returns the value of a custom session property.

## Syntax

```text
def get_session_property(session_id: str, name: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

This method, together with [set_session_property](#set_session_property-method), provides an extensible way of managing the Service Provider's session properties that are not available through the primary properties and events of the component. These methods can be called on any active browser session. Use [on_session_created](#on_session_created-event) and [on_session_destroyed](#on_session_destroyed-event) events to get notifications about session creation and disposal.

The following properties are supported for SP sessions and can be passed to the *Name* parameter of this method:

- Authenticated: whether the session has been authenticated with the IdP service.
- AuthnRequestID: the AuthnRequest ID.
- Expires: the web session expiration time.
- LogoutRequestID: the LogoutRequest ID.
- NameID: the NameID of the user.
- NameIDFormat: the format of the NameID of the user.
- FormattedNameID: the formatted version of the NameID.
- RelayState: the current (last) relay state entry.
- Session: the session ID (the same as you pass as parameter).
- SAMLSession: the browser cookie that corresponds to the session.
- SessionIndex: a list of cross-network session indexes assigned to this session.
- URL: the current request's URL.
- UserData: the protocol-independent user data. Use this session property to store custom information associated with the session across contexts.
- Stage: the current session stage (or epoch).

# import_settings method

Loads the metadata required for information exchange with the identity provider. Both local (SP-side) and remote (IdP-side) metadata can be loaded with this call.

## Syntax

```text
def import_settings(metadata: str, sp: bool) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The Identity provider (IdP) may have different options and requirements for interactions with the Service Provider (SP). Usually all these options together with X.509 certificates needed for data exchange are stored in XML metadata files. Use this method to load metadata from a file generated by an IdP.

The *Metadata* parameter contains metadata in the form of byte array. Set *SP* parameter to true to indicate that it is the Service Provider's own settings that are being loaded.

The loaded metadata is populated in the sp_settings or id_p_settings object (depending on the value of the *SP* parameter).

# initiate_artifact_resolve method

Initiates the artifact resolution protocol.

## Syntax

```text
def initiate_artifact_resolve(connection_id: int, session_id: str, id_p_service_index: int, artifact: str, tag: str) -> int: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this event to initiate the artifact resolution protocol for *Artifact*. Specify the desired SP service endpoint via the *IdPServiceIndex* parameter.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sprUnknown | 0 | Unknown or undefined processing result |
| sprSuccess | 1 | The processing completed successfully. No tangible output has been generated (e.g. an artifact was resolved and acknowledged, but nothing needs to be sent to the browser). |
| sprSAMLMessage | 2 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains a new SAML message that needs to be conveyed to the other SAML party. |
| sprSignOnPage | 3 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains or redirects to a SAML login page. |
| sprResource | 4 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains, or redirects to, a generic web resource. |
| sprSAMLError | 5 | The processing failed due to SAML-related issue (bad sign-on parameters, unknown principal etc.). The output contains a SAML error message. This still needs to be relayed to the other SAML party. |
| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

Note: this method is currently in development and will be available in later SecureBlackbox updates.

# initiate_attribute_query method

Initiates the attribute query.

## Syntax

```text
def initiate_attribute_query(connection_id: int, session_id: str, id_p_service_index: int, name_id: str, name_id_format: str, attributes: str, attr_name_formats: str, attr_friendly_names: str, tag: str) -> int: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this event to initiate the attribute query for user *NameID*. Specify the desired *Attributes* as a list of CRLF-separated attribute names. *AttrNameFormats* and *AttrFriendlyNames* can also be provided in the same way.

Specify the IdP AQS endpoint via the *IdPServiceIndex* parameter.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |

| sprSAMLMessage | 2 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains a new SAML message that needs to be conveyed to the other SAML party. |
| sprSignOnPage | 3 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains or redirects to a SAML login page. |
| sprResource | 4 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains, or redirects to, a generic web resource. |
| sprSAMLError | 5 | The processing failed due to SAML-related issue (bad sign-on parameters, unknown principal etc.). The output contains a SAML error message. This still needs to be relayed to the other SAML party. |
| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

Note: this method is currently in development and will be available in later SecureBlackbox updates.

# initiate_auth method

Starts SP-initiated SAML authentication flow.

## Syntax

```text
def initiate_auth(connection_id: int, session_id: str, id_p_service_index: int, name_id_format: str, relay_state: str, tag: str) -> int: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to initiate SAML authentication flow on the SP side. Pass the index of the single sign-on service that you want to use to the *IdPServiceIndex* parameter. Leave it empty to let the component pick up the best one automatically. Use *RelayState* to pass the callback URL to the IdP service. This will be mirrored back by the IDP in its response.

This method returns the processing result as one of the values given below. Right before it returns it passes the processing results back to the caller via the [on_processing_completed](#on_processing_completed-event) event. This event fires independently of the processing outcome (success or failure), and contains the same *ConnectionID* that is passed to this call.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sprUnknown | 0 | Unknown or undefined processing result |
| sprSuccess | 1 | The processing completed successfully. No tangible output has been generated (e.g. an artifact was resolved and acknowledged, but nothing needs to be sent to the browser). |
| sprSAMLMessage | 2 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains a new SAML message that needs to be conveyed to the other SAML party. |
| sprSignOnPage | 3 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains or redirects to a SAML login page. |
| sprResource | 4 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains, or redirects to, a generic web resource. |
| sprSAMLError | 5 | The processing failed due to SAML-related issue (bad sign-on parameters, unknown principal etc.). The output contains a SAML error message. This still needs to be relayed to the other SAML party. |
| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

# initiate_logout method

Starts SP-initiated SAML logout flow.

## Syntax

```text
def initiate_logout(connection_id: int, session_id: str, id_p_service_index: int, name_id: str, session_index: str, relay_state: str, tag: str) -> int: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to initiate SAML logout flow on the SP side. Pass the index of the single logout service that you want to use to the *IdPServiceIndex* parameter.

Use *IdPServiceIndex* to specify the identity provider's service that you want to use for signing out. Provide the existing SAML session details in one of the following ways:

- as an HTTP *SessionID*: in this case the component will try to pick the matching SAML session from its session cache.
- as a known *NameID*.
- as a known SAML *SessionIndex*.

You can use a combination of the above.

This method returns the processing result as one of the values given below. Right before it returns it passes the processing results back to the caller via the [on_processing_completed](#on_processing_completed-event) event. This event fires independently of the processing outcome (success or failure), and contains the same *ConnectionID* that is passed to this call.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sprUnknown | 0 | Unknown or undefined processing result |
| sprSuccess | 1 | The processing completed successfully. No tangible output has been generated (e.g. an artifact was resolved and acknowledged, but nothing needs to be sent to the browser). |
| sprSAMLMessage | 2 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains a new SAML message that needs to be conveyed to the other SAML party. |
| sprSignOnPage | 3 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains or redirects to a SAML login page. |
| sprResource | 4 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains, or redirects to, a generic web resource. |
| sprSAMLError | 5 | The processing failed due to SAML-related issue (bad sign-on parameters, unknown principal etc.). The output contains a SAML error message. This still needs to be relayed to the other SAML party. |
| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

Use *RelayState* to pass a value to the IdP that you want to be mirrored back in the IdP's response. The *Tag* value will be similarly mirrored, but in the component's events, such as [on_processing_completed](#on_processing_completed-event).

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

# list_clients method

Enumerates the connected clients.

## Syntax

```text
def list_clients() -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

This method enumerates the connected clients. It returns a list of strings, with each string being of 'ConnectionID|Address|Port' format, and representing a single connection.

# pin_client method

Takes a snapshot of the connection's properties.

## Syntax

```text
def pin_client(connection_id: int) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to take a snapshot of a connected client. The captured properties are populated in pinned_client and pinned_client_chain properties.

# process_artifact method

Processes an artifact request received from the IdP service at one of artifact receiver endpoints.

## Syntax

```text
def process_artifact(connection_id: int, session_id: str, request: str, tag: str) -> int: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to pass a SAML artifact received at one of the artifact endpoints.

Artifact messages are typically very simple:

```text
https://idp.server.com/sso/artifact?SAMLart=artifact
```

In response to the artifact received, the server initiates an artifact resolution protocol to retrieve the SAML message identified by the artifact. This will typically expose itself via an invocation of the [on_artifact_resolve_request_prepared](#on_artifact_resolve_request_prepared-event) event, and, later on, of an event matching the type of the actual message received - such as [on_assertion_received](#on_assertion_received-event).

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sprUnknown | 0 | Unknown or undefined processing result |
| sprSuccess | 1 | The processing completed successfully. No tangible output has been generated (e.g. an artifact was resolved and acknowledged, but nothing needs to be sent to the browser). |
| sprSAMLMessage | 2 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains a new SAML message that needs to be conveyed to the other SAML party. |
| sprSignOnPage | 3 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains or redirects to a SAML login page. |
| sprResource | 4 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains, or redirects to, a generic web resource. |
| sprSAMLError | 5 | The processing failed due to SAML-related issue (bad sign-on parameters, unknown principal etc.). The output contains a SAML error message. This still needs to be relayed to the other SAML party. |
| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

Note: this method is currently in development and will be available in later SecureBlackbox updates.

```

## Remarks

Use this method to pass a SAML artifact request received at one of the ArtifactResolutionService endpoints.

This method returns the processing result as one of the values given below. Right before it returns it passes the processing results back to the caller via the [on_processing_completed](#on_processing_completed-event) event. This event fires independently of the processing outcome (success or failure), and contains the same *ConnectionID* that is passed to this call.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sprUnknown | 0 | Unknown or undefined processing result |
| sprSuccess | 1 | The processing completed successfully. No tangible output has been generated (e.g. an artifact was resolved and acknowledged, but nothing needs to be sent to the browser). |
| sprSAMLMessage | 2 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains a new SAML message that needs to be conveyed to the other SAML party. |
| sprSignOnPage | 3 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains or redirects to a SAML login page. |
| sprResource | 4 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains, or redirects to, a generic web resource. |
| sprSAMLError | 5 | The processing failed due to SAML-related issue (bad sign-on parameters, unknown principal etc.). The output contains a SAML error message. This still needs to be relayed to the other SAML party. |
| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

Note: this method is currently in development and will be available in later SecureBlackbox updates.

# process_assertion method

```

## Remarks

Use this method to pass a SAML assertion received at one of the AssertionConsumerService endpoints.

This method returns the processing result as one of the values given below. Right before it returns it passes the processing results back to the caller via the [on_processing_completed](#on_processing_completed-event) event. This event fires independently of the processing outcome (success or failure), and contains the same *ConnectionID* that is passed to this call.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sprUnknown | 0 | Unknown or undefined processing result |
| sprSuccess | 1 | The processing completed successfully. No tangible output has been generated (e.g. an artifact was resolved and acknowledged, but nothing needs to be sent to the browser). |

| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

# process_generic_request method

Processes a generic HTTP SAML request.

## Syntax

```text
def process_generic_request(connection_id: int, request: bytes) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to process a generic well-formed HTTP SAML request obtained elsewhere. This is a handy mechanism to bind the SAML processor to an external web engine.

The *Request* parameter is expected to contain a full HTTP request, including the HTTP method string (GET, POST) and all the headers. The generated response contains a full HTTP response that should be supplied back to the requestor. You can edit some parts of the response (for example, by adding some custom HTTP headers).

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

# process_logout_request method

Processes logout request received from the IdP service at one of the SLS endpoints.

## Syntax

```text
def process_logout_request(connection_id: int, session_id: str, request: str, tag: str) -> int: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to pass a SAML logout request received at one of the SingleLogoutService endpoints.

An SLS endpoint may receive requests of two kinds: LogoutRequest and LogoutResponse. If *Request* contains a LogoutRequest, the content generated by this method will contain a corresponding LogoutResponse. If *Request* contains a LogoutResponse, the generated content is empty.

This method returns the processing result as one of the values given below. Right before it returns it passes the processing results back to the caller via the [on_processing_completed](#on_processing_completed-event) event. This event fires independently of the processing outcome (success or failure), and contains the same *ConnectionID* that is passed to this call.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sprUnknown | 0 | Unknown or undefined processing result |
| sprSuccess | 1 | The processing completed successfully. No tangible output has been generated (e.g. an artifact was resolved and acknowledged, but nothing needs to be sent to the browser). |
| sprSAMLMessage | 2 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains a new SAML message that needs to be conveyed to the other SAML party. |
| sprSignOnPage | 3 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains or redirects to a SAML login page. |
| sprResource | 4 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains, or redirects to, a generic web resource. |
| sprSAMLError | 5 | The processing failed due to SAML-related issue (bad sign-on parameters, unknown principal etc.). The output contains a SAML error message. This still needs to be relayed to the other SAML party. |
| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

You can use this method with or without the [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property).

The following properties can be adjusted for each individual session:

- AuthnRequestID: the AuthnRequest ID.
- LogoutRequestID: the LogoutRequest ID.
- NameID: the NameID of the user.
- RelayState: the current (last) relay state entry.
- Session: the session ID (the same as you pass as parameter).
- SAMLSession: the browser cookie that corresponds to the session.
- SessionIndex: a collection of cross-network session indexes assigned to this session.
- URL: the current request's URL.
- UserData: the protocol-independent user data. Use this session property to store custom information associated with the session across contexts.
- Expires: the web session expiration time. Set it to a moment in the past to enforce immediate session expiration.

Note: setting a session property invokes a call to [on_session_state_save](#on_session_state_save-event). The component does that to update the session state kept externally.

Note: changing session properties mindlessly may break the protocol flow. For example, changing *AuthnRequestID* to a different value may cause the Service Provider to reject the subsequent assertion message, as the incoming assertion will contain a now-unmatching In-Response-To entry.

# start method

Starts the SP server.

## Syntax

```text
def start() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to start listening for incoming connections.

# stop method

Stops the IdP server.

## Syntax

```text
def stop() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Call this method to stop listening for incoming connections.

# on_accept event

Reports an incoming connection.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerAcceptEventParams(object):
  @property
  def remote_address() -> str: ...

  @property
  def remote_port() -> int: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...
  @accept.setter
  def accept(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_accept() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerAcceptEventParams], None]: ...
@on_accept.setter
def on_accept(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerAcceptEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event is fired when a new connection from *RemoteAddress*:*RemotePort* is ready to be accepted. Use the *Accept* parameter to accept or decline it.

Subscribe to [on_connect](#on_connect-event) event to be notified of every connection that has been set up.

# on_artifact_received event

The server fires this event upon receiving an Artifact message from the other side.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerArtifactReceivedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def request_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def issuer() -> str: ...

  @property
  def artifact() -> str: ...

  @property
  def action() -> int: ...
  @action.setter
  def action(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_artifact_received() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerArtifactReceivedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_artifact_received.setter
def on_artifact_received(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerArtifactReceivedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The Artifact message is very simple and only contains the actual artifact (an opaque string). Depending on the choice of the *Action* parameter, the further flow may go as following:

- fraAuto: the server will prepare an ArtifactResolve request and sent it to the other side to retrieve the artifact.
- fraCustom: the server will acknowledge the receipt of the artifact, but it is the task of your code to request the message and pass it on to the server via [process_generic_request](#process_generic_request-method) method.
- fraReject: the server will discard the artifact.

Note that you still can choose fraAuto to let the server proceed, but alter the flow as required in further events, such as [on_artifact_resolve_request_prepared](#on_artifact_resolve_request_prepared-event).

In [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property) this event would typically be fired from [process_artifact](#process_artifact-method) call.

# on_artifact_resolve_request_prepared event

This event is fired when a new artifact resolution request message has been prepared by the class.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerArtifactResolveRequestPreparedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def request_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def destination() -> str: ...

  @property
  def artifact() -> str: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_artifact_resolve_request_prepared() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerArtifactResolveRequestPreparedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_artifact_resolve_request_prepared.setter
def on_artifact_resolve_request_prepared(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerArtifactResolveRequestPreparedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about preparation of artifact resolution requests. This is fired right after the resolution request has been prepared, and just before the component sends it out to the identity provider.

# on_artifact_resolve_request_received event

Reports receipt of ArtifactResolveRequest message.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerArtifactResolveRequestReceivedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def request_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def issuer() -> str: ...

  @property
  def is_encrypted() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def is_signed() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def artifact() -> str: ...

  @property
  def action() -> int: ...
  @action.setter
  def action(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property

@on_artifact_resolve_request_received.setter
def on_artifact_resolve_request_received(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerArtifactResolveRequestReceivedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component fires this event to report receipt of incoming artifact resolution request. The *Artifact* parameter contains the artifact identifier received.

The application can choose to accept or reject the request, or process it manually, using the *Action* parameter:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| fraAuto | 1 | Handle the requested action automatically by the server |
| fraCustom | 2 | Override the action using the user code logic |
| fraAbort | 3 | Abort the requested action |

# on_assertion_received event

This event is fired when an assertion is received from the IdP.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerAssertionReceivedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def request_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def issuer() -> str: ...

@on_assertion_received.setter
def on_assertion_received(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerAssertionReceivedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The AssertionReceived event notifies the application that an assertion has been received at the ACS endpoint. In [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property) this event may fire in response to a [process_assertion](#process_assertion-method) call. In online mode it can fire at any time while the server is active.

The *ConnectionID* and *SessionID* specify the IDs of the current client connection and HTTP session. The *RequestID* contains the ID of the original AuthnRequest message, if it was sent by the service provider. The *IsEncrypted* and *IsSigned* parameters indicate the security properties of the assertion. The *NameID* parameter contains the unique name identifier of the authenticated principal, and the *SessionIndex* contains the SAML session identifier. In rare cases *SessionIndex* may contain multiple indices, if the SP has more than one session at the IdP.

The application can choose to accept or reject the request, or process it manually, using the *Action* parameter:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| fraAuto | 1 | Handle the requested action automatically by the server |
| fraCustom | 2 | Override the action using the user code logic |
| fraAbort | 3 | Abort the requested action |

If the assertion is returned in response to this SP's AuthnRequest message, the *RelayState* parameter will contain the original relay state passed to the earlier [initiate_auth](#initiate_auth-method) call.

# on_attribute_query_prepared event

Notifies the application of the preparation of an AttributeQuery.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerAttributeQueryPreparedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def request_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def destination() -> str: ...

  @property
  def name_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def name_id_format() -> str: ...

  @property

@on_attribute_query_prepared.setter
def on_attribute_query_prepared(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerAttributeQueryPreparedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component uses this event to notify the application of the completion of the preparation of the AttributeQuery message. The *NameID* and *NameIDFormat* parameters indicate the attribute subject, and the *Attributes* parameter contains a list of attributes being requested.

This event may be fired in response to a [initiate_attribute_query](#initiate_attribute_query-method) call (in offline mode), or intermittently in online mode.

# on_authn_request_prepared event

This event is fired when a new authentication request message has been prepared.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerAuthnRequestPreparedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def request_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def destination() -> str: ...

  @property
  def name_id_format() -> str: ...

  @property
  def force_authn() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def non_interactive() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def relay_state() -> str: ...
  @relay_state.setter
  def relay_state(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_authn_request_prepared() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerAuthnRequestPreparedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_authn_request_prepared.setter
def on_authn_request_prepared(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerAuthnRequestPreparedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Subscribe to this event to get notified about assertion requests prepared by the service provider. This event may fire from [initiate_auth](#initiate_auth-method) method when working in [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property), or at any time when working as a standalone live web server.

You can adjust the *RelayState* as required in the event handler to pass on a state to the IdP. The IdP will return this state back to you together with its authentication assertion.

# on_connect event

Reports an accepted connection.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerConnectEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def remote_address() -> str: ...

  @property
  def remote_port() -> int: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_connect() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerConnectEventParams], None]: ...
@on_connect.setter
def on_connect(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerConnectEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event to report that a new connection has been established. *ConnectionId* indicates the unique ID assigned to this connection. The same ID will be supplied to any other events related to this connection, such as on_session_closed or on_session_established.

# on_disconnect event

Fires to report a disconnected client.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerDisconnectEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_disconnect() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerDisconnectEventParams], None]: ...
@on_disconnect.setter
def on_disconnect(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerDisconnectEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event when a connected client disconnects.

# on_encrypted event

Notifies the application that the assertion is encrypted and provides recipient certificate details.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerEncryptedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def request_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def issuer_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def serial_number() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def subject_key_id() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def need_credential() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def skip_this() -> bool: ...
  @skip_this.setter
  def skip_this(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_encrypted() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerEncryptedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_encrypted.setter
def on_encrypted(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerEncryptedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event when processing encrypted documents to report the fact of encryption and pass certificate parameters to the user.

This event fires repeatedly for each encryption mechanism used in the document until the user provides the correct credential via the decryption_certificate property (depending on encryption method used), or sets *SkipThis* to true.

The *IssuerRDN*, *SerialNumber*, and *SubjectKeyID* parameters provide the details of the encryption certificate. Note that the document can be encrypted with more than one certificate (or have "more than one recipient"), in which case each certificate will invoke its own OnEncrypted event loop.

The *NeedCredential* parameter specifies whether the correct credential is already available to the class or still needs to be set. One example where *NeedCredential* would be set to false is where it had been provided by the application prior to processing the document (e.g. by setting the decryption_certificate property to a known pre-defined value). If *NeedCredential* is set to true, you must provide the valid credential for the decryption process to succeed.

# on_error event

Information about errors during data delivery.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerErrorEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def error_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def fatal() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def remote() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def description() -> str: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_error() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerErrorEventParams], None]: ...
@on_error.setter
def on_error(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerErrorEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.

*ErrorCode* contains an error code and *Description* contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the section.

# on_external_sign event

Handles remote or external signing initiated by the server protocol.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerExternalSignEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def operation_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def hash_algorithm() -> str: ...

  @property
  def pars() -> str: ...

  @property
  def data() -> str: ...

  @property
  def signed_data() -> str: ...
  @signed_data.setter
  def signed_data(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_external_sign() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerExternalSignEventParams], None]: ...
@on_external_sign.setter
def on_external_sign(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerExternalSignEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Assign a handler to this event if you need to delegate a low-level signing operation to an external, remote, or custom signing engine. Depending on the settings, the handler will receive a hashed or unhashed value to be signed.

The event handler must pass the value of *Data* to the signer, obtain the signature, and pass it back to the class via the *SignedData* parameter.

*OperationId* provides a comment about the operation and its origin. It depends on the exact class being used, and may be empty. *HashAlgorithm* specifies the hash algorithm being used for the operation, and *Pars* contains algorithm-dependent parameters.

The class uses base16 (hex) encoding for the *Data*, *SignedData*, and *Pars* parameters. If your signing engine uses a different input and output encoding, you may need to decode and/or encode the data before and/or after the signing.

A sample MD5 hash encoded in base16: a0dee2a0382afbb09120ffa7ccd8a152 - lower case base16 A0DEE2A0382AFBB09120FFA7CCD8A152 - upper case base16

A sample event handler that uses the .NET RSACryptoServiceProvider class may look like the following:

```text
signer.OnExternalSign += (s, e) =>
{
       var cert = new X509Certificate2("cert.pfx", "", X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable);
       var key = (RSACryptoServiceProvider)cert.PrivateKey;

       var dataToSign = e.Data.FromBase16String();
       var signedData = key.SignHash(dataToSign, "2.16.840.1.101.3.4.2.1");
       e.SignedData = signedData.ToBase16String();
};
```

# on_logout_request_prepared event

This event is fired when a new logout request has been prepared.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerLogoutRequestPreparedEventParams(object):

@on_logout_request_prepared.setter
def on_logout_request_prepared(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerLogoutRequestPreparedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component uses this event to report completion of the LogoutRequest preparation. The *NameID*, *NameIDFormat*, and *SessionIndex* parameters indicate the subject that is being logged out. The *SP* parameter references the service provider involved.

The *RelayState* contains the relay state value that is going to be passed with the LogoutRequest to the remote party and mirrored back (if the protocol supports it).

# on_logout_request_received event

The class uses this event to notify the application about an incoming SAML Logout Request message.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerLogoutRequestReceivedEventParams(object):

@on_logout_request_received.setter
def on_logout_request_received(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerLogoutRequestReceivedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The SAML SP server fires this event when a SAML logout request is received at a single logout service endpoint. The *NameID*, *NameIDFormat*, and *SessionIndex* parameters indicate the principal that is signing out.

The application can choose to accept or reject the request, or process it manually, using the *Action* parameter:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| fraAuto | 1 | Handle the requested action automatically by the server |
| fraCustom | 2 | Override the action using the user code logic |
| fraAbort | 3 | Abort the requested action |

# on_logout_response_prepared event

@on_logout_response_received.setter
def on_logout_response_received(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerLogoutResponseReceivedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The SAML SP server fires this event when a SAML logout response is received at a single logout service endpoint following the LogoutRequest sent earlier. The *RelayState* is a mirrored back value included in the request.

The *NameID*, *NameIDFormat*, and *SessionIndex* parameters indicate the principal that is signing out.

The application can choose to accept or reject the request, or process it manually, using the *Action* parameter:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| fraAuto | 1 | Handle the requested action automatically by the server |
| fraCustom | 2 | Override the action using the user code logic |
| fraAbort | 3 | Abort the requested action |

# on_notification event

This event notifies the application about an underlying control flow event.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerNotificationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def event_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def event_param() -> str: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_notification() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerNotificationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_notification.setter
def on_notification(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerNotificationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the class. For example, it may fire to report completion of the document processing. The list of events being reported is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier of the event is provided in the *EventID* parameter. *EventParam* contains any parameters accompanying the occurrence. Depending on the type of the class, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.

This class can fire this event with the following *EventID* values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| SAMLResponderError | TBD |
| SAMLSessionLogout | TBD |
| ListeningStarted | Notifies the application that the server has started listening for incoming connections. |
| ListeningStopped | Notifies the application that the server has stopped listening to incoming connections. |

# on_processing_completed event

This event notifies the application of the completion of request or response processing.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerProcessingCompletedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def tag() -> str: ...

  @property
  def processing_result() -> int: ...

  @property
  def response() -> str: ...

  @property
  def redirect() -> bool: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_processing_completed() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerProcessingCompletedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_processing_completed.setter
def on_processing_completed(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerProcessingCompletedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component fires on_processing_completed to notify the application about completion of an earlier initiated processing operation. It is only fired in [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property) in response to calls such as [process_assertion](#process_assertion-method), [process_logout_request](#process_logout_request-method), or similar. The main purpose of this event is to notify the application of the outcomes of the processing and return any prepared SAML entity for subsequent relay to the browser.

This event is fired strictly once for each Process* call, with the *ConnectionID* matching the value passed to the Process* method.

The *SessionID* parameter contains the identifier of the current virtual session. It may differ to the value passed to the Process* method if the session information was provided on the fly via the [on_session_info_needed](#on_session_info_needed-event) event. The *ProcessingResult* indicates the type of deliverable that was created during the processing (see below for possible values). The *Response* parameter contains the body of the deliverable. This can take one of the forms:

- a self-submitting form containing a SAML message.
- a redirect URL.
- a SOAP XML response.
- an empty string if ProcessingResult is set to sprSuccess.

The *Redirect* parameter indicates whether the value of *Response* should be passed to the browser within the 302 Location header, or as a document body.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sprUnknown | 0 | Unknown or undefined processing result |
| sprSuccess | 1 | The processing completed successfully. No tangible output has been generated (e.g. an artifact was resolved and acknowledged, but nothing needs to be sent to the browser). |
| sprSAMLMessage | 2 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains a new SAML message that needs to be conveyed to the other SAML party. |
| sprSignOnPage | 3 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains or redirects to a SAML login page. |
| sprResource | 4 | The processing was fully or partially successful. The output contains, or redirects to, a generic web resource. |
| sprSAMLError | 5 | The processing failed due to SAML-related issue (bad sign-on parameters, unknown principal etc.). The output contains a SAML error message. This still needs to be relayed to the other SAML party. |
| sprTransportError | 6 | The operation could not be completed due to an issue with configuration (e.g. non-existent SAML endpoint), permissions, or network. The SAML protocol could not commence. The output contains a transport-layer (HTTP) error message which can/should be displayed to the user in the browser. |

# on_read_artifact event

@on_read_artifact.setter
def on_read_artifact(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerReadArtifactEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component fires this event to request the content matching *Artifact* from the application. This is normally happens within the artifact resolution protocol between the SP and the IdP server.

The application must provide the requested artifact content via the *Value* parameter. The application can choose not to provide the artifact content (for example, if it doesn't have it) by setting *Skip* to true.

# on_resource_close event

Tells the application that it can close the opened resource.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerResourceCloseEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def handle() -> str: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:

@on_resource_close.setter
def on_resource_close(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerResourceCloseEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class uses this event to notify the application that it can now close the resource opened earlier in its [on_resource_open](#on_resource_open-event) handler.

# on_resource_open event

Requests the application to open the requested resource.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerResourceOpenEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def url() -> str: ...

@on_resource_open.setter
def on_resource_open(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerResourceOpenEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event in virtualized mode if the application had returned the *fraCustom* modifier from the earlier [on_resource_request](#on_resource_request-event) event call. Your code is expected to open the requested resource and be prepared to read from it in subsequent [on_resource_read](#on_resource_read-event) event calls. Check the operation status, and alter it, if needed, through the *OperationStatus* parameter:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| ostOk | 1 |  |
| ostNoSuchFile | 2 |  |
| ostAccessDenied | 3 |  |
| ostWriteProtect | 4 |  |
| ostUnsupported | 5 |  |
| ostInvalidParameter | 6 |  |
| ostEOF | 7 |  |

# on_resource_read event

Requests the application to read from an opened resource.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerResourceReadEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def handle() -> str: ...

  @property
  def size() -> int: ...

  @property
  def operation_status() -> int: ...
  @operation_status.setter
  def operation_status(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:

def on_resource_read() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerResourceReadEventParams], None]: ...
@on_resource_read.setter
def on_resource_read(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerResourceReadEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event in virtualized mode to request another chunk of data from the resource opened earlier. The handler of this event should read up to *Size* bytes from the object, and pass them to the component with a [set_client_buffer](#set_client_buffer-method) call.

Use the *OperationStatus* parameter to return the operation result back to the server. When the file has been read up to its end, set *OperationStatus* to ostEOF to tell the components that no more on_resource_read calls are needed.

Set *OperationStatus* to one of the following values:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| ostOk | 1 |  |
| ostNoSuchFile | 2 |  |
| ostAccessDenied | 3 |  |
| ostWriteProtect | 4 |  |
| ostUnsupported | 5 |  |
| ostInvalidParameter | 6 |  |
| ostEOF | 7 |  |

# on_resource_request event

Notifies the application that a server resource is requested.

## Syntax

```text

@on_resource_request.setter
def on_resource_request(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerResourceRequestEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class uses this event to notify the application that the connection has requested a server resource.

The *URL* parameter specifies the resource requested. *ResProtected* is set to true if the resource is protected by SAML. *ResSpecial* is set to true if the request is a SAML resource, such as the metadata or an Assertion Consumer Service page. *ConnectionID* identifies the connected client.

Set *Action* to [fraAuto](constants.md#const_fraAuto) to let the server handle the request automatically, or to fraCustom to handle the request in your code ('virtualize' the request).

Choose *Action* as one of the following values:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| fraAuto | 1 | Handle the requested action automatically by the server |
| fraCustom | 2 | Override the action using the user code logic |
| fraAbort | 3 | Abort the requested action |

# on_resource_write event

Requests the application to write to an opened resource.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerResourceWriteEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def handle() -> str: ...

  @property
  def operation_status() -> int: ...
  @operation_status.setter
  def operation_status(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:

def on_resource_write() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerResourceWriteEventParams], None]: ...
@on_resource_write.setter
def on_resource_write(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerResourceWriteEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event in virtualized mode to pass another chunk of data to a resource opened earlier. This event is called for write-enabled requests, such as POST or PUT. The handler of this event should read the pending data using the [get_client_buffer](#get_client_buffer-method) method and write them to the opened file descriptor.

Use the *OperationStatus* parameter to return the operation result back to the server:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| ostOk | 1 |  |
| ostNoSuchFile | 2 |  |
| ostAccessDenied | 3 |  |
| ostWriteProtect | 4 |  |
| ostUnsupported | 5 |  |
| ostInvalidParameter | 6 |  |
| ostEOF | 7 |  |

# on_saml_message_prepared event

```

## Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about every SAML message that has been prepared by the server. This event is fired for every type of the outgoing message (e.g. SAMLResponse or LogoutRequest). The *InResponseTo* contains the ID of the message in response to which the current message is sent (if applicable). The *RequestBody* parameter contains the body of such request.

The *MessageType* parameter indicates the type of the message that has been prepared, such as SAMLResponse. The *MessageBody* contains the XML body of the message. The *Success* parameter indicates whether the message contains a positive statement or an error. Both the *MessageBody* and *Success* parameters are adjustable.

# on_saml_message_received event

# on_session_info_needed event

This event is fired in OfflineMode to request the session ID for the current flow.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerSessionInfoNeededEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...
  @session_id.setter
  def session_id(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_session_info_needed() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerSessionInfoNeededEventParams], None]: ...
@on_session_info_needed.setter
def on_session_info_needed(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerSessionInfoNeededEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

SAML protocol is stateful, which means that SAML services need to keep session-related information between connections. When used in online mode - where the components listen and serve connections automatically - the components can use HTTP cookies to track connecting clients and maintain the session store at the background. However, when used in offline mode, the components do not have access to the HTTP layer and live too short for the session store to survive. That is why in offline mode the components rely on the application code to keep the session information for them.

The components use a collection of Session* events to exchange session information with the application:

- [on_session_created](#on_session_created-event) is called when the component establishes a new session. In offline mode, the application should associate the session ID with the connected user, for example by returning it as a cookie.
- [on_session_state_save](#on_session_state_save-event) : the component passes the session state to the application and expects that the application saves it somewhere to return it back to the component at its request at some point in the future. The session state is an opaque string. The application can use a hash table to store a collection of (SessionID, SessionState) pairs over the lifetime of the SAML service. The server may fire [on_session_state_save](#on_session_state_save-event) multiple times for the same SessionID. If this happens, the existing SessionID entry should be overwritten with the fresh session data.
- [on_session_state_retrieve](#on_session_state_retrieve-event) : the component passes a session ID to the application and expects it to return the session state saved in the hash table earlier. The application should not delete the state from the hash table, as it may be needed again.
- on_session_info_needed (this event): the component expects the application to return the session ID corresponding to the connection ID back to them. This event fires, for example, if the application calls [process_logout_request](#process_logout_request-method) but passes an empty SessionID as a parameter.
- [on_session_destroyed](#on_session_destroyed-event) is called when a session is destroyed. The component can remove the session from the hash table upon receiving this event.

# on_session_state_retrieve event

This event fires to retrieve session state information from the application.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerSessionStateRetrieveEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def session_state() -> str: ...
  @session_state.setter
  def session_state(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_session_state_retrieve() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerSessionStateRetrieveEventParams], None]: ...
@on_session_state_retrieve.setter
def on_session_state_retrieve(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerSessionStateRetrieveEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component fires this event to request a session state that was previously provided to the application via the [on_session_state_save](#on_session_state_save-event) call.

See the [on_session_info_needed](#on_session_info_needed-event) topic for more details about session management in offline mode.

# on_session_state_save event

This event passes a session state object to the application for safekeeping.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerSessionStateSaveEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def session_state() -> str: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:

@on_session_state_save.setter
def on_session_state_save(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerSessionStateSaveEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component fires this event to pass a session state to the application. The application is expected to save the state object (which is an opaque string) in a hash table, and be ready to return it back to the component when it requests it using a [on_session_state_retrieve](#on_session_state_retrieve-event) call.

See the [on_session_info_needed](#on_session_info_needed-event) topic for more details about session management in offline mode.

# on_signature_found event

Signifies the start of signature validation.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerSignatureFoundEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def scope() -> int: ...

  @property
  def serial_number() -> bytes: ...

  @property

  @validate.setter
  def validate(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:

def on_signature_found() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerSignatureFoundEventParams], None]: ...
@on_signature_found.setter
def on_signature_found(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerSignatureFoundEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event tells the application that signature validation is about to start, and provides the details about the signer's certificate via its *IssuerRDN*, *SerialNumber*, and *SubjectKeyID* parameters. It fires for every signature located in the verified message.

The *Scope* parameter specifies the subject of the signature. This can be the outermost SAML message or an embedded assertion.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sssUnknown | 0 | The scope of signature is unknown |
| sssMessage | 1 | The signature covers the entire SAML message |
| sssAssertion | 2 | The signature covers an assertion |
| sssBinding | 3 | The signature covers the binding |

The details of the reported signature are populated in the security object. For assertion signatures, you can update the details by pinning the assertion.

The *CertFound* is set to True if the class has found the needed certificate in one of the known locations, and to False otherwise, in which case you must provide it manually via KnownCertificates property.

Signature validation consists of two independent stages: cryptographic signature validation and chain validation. SAMLReader only supports signature validation. To validate the chain, grab the signing certificate from the signing_certificate property and the associated certificates from the certificates collection, and pass them to the [CertificateValidator](CertificateValidator.md#CertificateValidator) component to validate its chain.

Use the *Validate* parameter to tell the reader whether it should validate the signature.

# on_signature_validated event

Reports the signature validation result.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerSignatureValidatedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

@on_signature_validated.setter
def on_signature_validated(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerSignatureValidatedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event is fired when the complete XML signature validation process is finished.

The *Scope* parameter specifies the subject of the signature. This can be the outermost SAML message or an embedded assertion.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sssUnknown | 0 | The scope of signature is unknown |
| sssMessage | 1 | The signature covers the entire SAML message |
| sssAssertion | 2 | The signature covers an assertion |
| sssBinding | 3 | The signature covers the binding |

 *IssuerRDN* returns the name of the signature issuer, *SerialNumber* identifies the signing certificate, *SubjectKeyID* contains the key identifier (SecureBlackbox uses SHA-1 hash algorithm output as key identifiers). Finally, *ValidationResult* specifies whether signature is valid or not:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| svtValid | 0 | The signature is valid |
| svtUnknown | 1 | Signature validity is unknown |
| svtCorrupted | 2 | The signature is corrupted |
| svtSignerNotFound | 3 | Failed to acquire the signing certificate. The signature cannot be validated. |
| svtFailure | 4 | General failure |
| svtReferenceCorrupted | 5 | Reference corrupted (XML-based signatures only) |

# on_tls_cert_validate event

Fires when a client certificate needs to be validated.

def on_tls_cert_validate(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerTLSCertValidateEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event to notify the application of an authenticating client. Use the event handler to validate the certificate and pass your decision back to the server component via the *Accept* parameter.

# on_tls_established event

Reports the setup of a TLS session.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerTLSEstablishedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_tls_established() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerTLSEstablishedEventParams], None]: ...

# on_tls_handshake event

Fires when a newly established client connection initiates a TLS handshake.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerTLSHandshakeEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def server_name() -> str: ...

  @property
  def abort() -> bool: ...
  @abort.setter
  def abort(value) -> None: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_tls_handshake() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerTLSHandshakeEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_handshake.setter
def on_tls_handshake(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerTLSHandshakeEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this event to get notified about the initiation of the TLS handshake by the remote client. The *ServerName* parameter specifies the requested host from the client hello message.

# on_tls_psk event

Requests a pre-shared key for TLS-PSK.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerTLSPSKEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def identity() -> str: ...

  @property
  def psk() -> str: ...

@on_tls_psk.setter
def on_tls_psk(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerTLSPSKEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event to report that a client has requested a TLS-PSK negotiation. *ConnectionId* indicates the unique connection ID that requested the PSK handshake.

Use *Identity* to look up for the corresponding pre-shared key in the server's database, then assign the key to the *PSK* parameter. If TLS 1.3 PSK is used, you will also need to assign the *Ciphersuite* parameter with the cipher suite associated with that identity and their key.

# on_tls_shutdown event

Reports closure of a TLS session.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerTLSShutdownEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

# In class SAMLSPServer:
@property
def on_tls_shutdown() -> Callable[[SAMLSPServerTLSShutdownEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_shutdown.setter
def on_tls_shutdown(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerTLSShutdownEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event when a connected client closes their TLS session gracefully. This event is typically followed by a [on_disconnect](#on_disconnect-event), which marks the closure of the underlying TCP session.

# on_user_auth_completed event

Notifies the application about the success of user authentication flow.

```

## Remarks

Subscribe to this event to get notified about completion of user authentication flow. The *NameID*, *NameIDFormat*, *SessionIndex*, *ValidFrom*, and *ValidTo* parameters contain the session parameters as stated in the assertion, which is provided via the *AssertionBody* parameter. The *Auth* parameter contain the authentication mechanism used.

The *RelayState* matches the original relay state that was used on the initiation stage of the authentication.

# on_user_auth_failed event

Notifies the application about failure of user authentication flow.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerUserAuthFailedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def relay_state() -> str: ...

def on_user_auth_failed(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerUserAuthFailedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component fires this event to notify the application about failed user authentication flow. The *RelayState* parameter matches the one included with the AuthnRequest message.

# on_user_auth_start event

Notifies the application about the start of user authentication flow.

## Syntax

```text
class SAMLSPServerUserAuthStartEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property
  def session_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def id_p_service_index() -> int: ...

@on_user_auth_start.setter
def on_user_auth_start(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerUserAuthStartEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The component invokes this event to signal the start of the user authentication flow. This happens shortly before the component proceeds to generation of AuthnRequest message.

The *RelayState* is an arbitrary string that will be passed to the IdP and mirrored back with the assertion. It is typically used to remember the URL of the resource or page that kicked in the SAML authentication flow.

@on_user_logout_start.setter
def on_user_logout_start(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLSPServerUserLogoutStartEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Subscribe to this event to get notified about the start of the user logout flow.

The logout process can be initiated on either the SP or IdP side. This event is fired at the earliest opportunity that this fact becomes known to the service provider: from within the [initiate_logout](#initiate_logout-method) method, [process_logout_request](#process_logout_request-method) method, or upon receiving a logout request at the SLS endpoint.

Independently of the timing and the stage of this event, the subsequent flow is the same: the logout protocol is initiated. The application will be notified of the completion of the protocol using the [on_user_logout_completed](#on_user_logout_completed-event) event. Note that the [on_user_logout_completed](#on_user_logout_completed-event) event may not fire if the connectivity to the IdP is lost prematurely or the IdP chooses not to respond. Due to that, it is reasonable to consider the user as logged out immediately after the current event fires.

The *IdPServiceIndex* parameter contains the index of the IdP service in the id_p_services collection. *NameID* indicates the name identifier of the user that is being logged out, and *SessionIndex* contain the unique SAML session identifier. The *Secondary* flag indicates whether the the SP is responding to IdP-initiated logout request.

The *RelayState* parameter is an optional SP-generated token that the IdP will return back in its LogoutResponse message. This is often set to the destination page where the browser should be redirected upon completion of the signout process.

**OCSPHashAlgorithm**: Specifies the hash algorithm to be used to identify certificates in OCSP requests.This global setting defines the hash algorithm to use in OCSP requests during chain validation. Some OCSP responders can only use older algorithms, in which case setting this property to SHA1 may be helpful.

**OldClientSideRSAFallback**: Specifies whether the SSH client should use a SHA1 fallback.Tells the SSH client to use a legacy ssh-rsa authentication even if the server indicates support for newer algorithms, such as rsa-sha-256. This is a backward-compatibility tweak.

**PKICache**: Specifies which PKI elements (certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses) should be cached.The PKICache setting specifies which Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) elements should be cached to optimize performance and reduce retrieval times. It supports comma-separated values to indicate the specific types of PKI data that should be cached.

Supported Values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| certificate | Enables caching of certificates. |
| crl | Enables caching of Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs). |
| ocsp | Enables caching of OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) responses. |

Example (default value):

```text
PKICache=certificate,crl,ocsp
```

 In this example, the component caches certificates, CRLs, and OCSP responses.

**PKICachePath**: Specifies the file system path where cached PKI data is stored.The PKICachePath setting defines the file system path where cached PKI data (e.g., certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses and Trusted Lists) will be stored. This allows the system to persistently save and retrieve PKI cache data, even across application restarts.

The default value is an empty string - no cached PKI data is stored on disk.

Example:

```text
PKICachePath=C:\Temp\cache
```

 In this example, the cached PKI data is stored in the C:\Temp\cache directory.

**ProductVersion**: Returns the version of the SecureBlackbox library.This property returns the long version string of the SecureBlackbox library being used (major.minor.build.revision).

**ServerSSLDHKeyLength**: Sets the size of the TLS DHE key exchange group.Use this property to adjust the length, in bits, of the DHE prime to be used by the TLS server.

**StaticDNS**: Specifies whether static DNS rules should be used.Set this property to enable or disable static DNS rules for the class. Works only if *UseOwnDNSResolver* is set to *true*.

Supported values are:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| none |  | No static DNS rules (default) |
| local |  | Local static DNS rules |
| global |  | Global static DNS rules |

**StaticIPAddress[domain]**: Gets or sets an IP address for the specified domain name.Use this property to get or set an IP address for the specified domain name in the internal (of the class) or global DNS rules storage depending on the *StaticDNS* value. The type of the IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) is determined automatically. If both addresses are available, they are divided by the | (pipe) character.

**StaticIPAddresses**: Gets or sets all the static DNS rules.Use this property to get static DNS rules from the current rules storage or restore them back between application sessions. If *StaticDNS* of the class is set to "*local*", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the internal storage of the class. If *StaticDNS* of the class is set to "*global*", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the GLOBAL storage. The rules list is returned and accepted in JSON format.

**Tag**: Allows to store any custom data.Use this config property to store any custom data.

**TLSSessionGroup**: Specifies the group name of TLS sessions to be used for session resumption.Use this property to limit the search of cached TLS sessions to the specified group. Sessions from other groups will be ignored. By default, all sessions are cached with an empty group name and available to all the classes.

**TLSSessionLifetime**: Specifies lifetime in seconds of the cached TLS session.Use this property to specify how much time the TLS session should be kept in the session cache. After this time, the session expires and will be automatically removed from the cache. Default value is 300 seconds (5 minutes).

**TLSSessionPurgeInterval**: Specifies how often the session cache should remove the expired TLS sessions.Use this property to specify the time interval of purging the expired TLS sessions from the session cache. Default value is 60 seconds (1 minute).

**UseCRLObjectCaching**: Specifies whether reuse of loaded CRL objects is enabled.This setting enables or disables the caching of CRL objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a CRL object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where CRL objects are frequently used.

**UseInternalRandom**: Switches between SecureBlackbox-own and platform PRNGs.Allows to switch between internal/native PRNG implementation and the one provided by the platform.

**UseLegacyAdESValidation**: Enables legacy AdES validation mode.Use this setting to switch the AdES component to the validation approach that was used in SBB 2020/SBB 2022 (less attention to temporal details).

**UseOCSPResponseObjectCaching**: Specifies whether reuse of loaded OCSP response objects is enabled.This setting enables or disables the caching of OCSP response objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a OCSP response object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where OCSP response objects are frequently used.

**UseOwnDNSResolver**: Specifies whether the client components should use own DNS resolver.Set this global property to false to force all the client components to use the DNS resolver provided by the target OS instead of using own one.

**UseSharedSystemStorages**: Specifies whether the validation engine should use a global per-process copy of the system certificate stores.Set this global property to false to make each validation run use its own copy of system certificate stores.

**UseSystemNativeSizeCalculation**: An internal CryptoAPI access tweak.This is an internal setting. Please do not use it unless instructed by the support team.

**UseSystemOAEPAndPSS**: Enforces or disables the use of system-driven RSA OAEP and PSS computations.This global setting defines who is responsible for performing RSA-OAEP and RSA-PSS computations where the private key is stored in a Windows system store and is exportable. If set to true, SBB will delegate the computations to Windows via a CryptoAPI call. Otherwise, it will export the key material and perform the computations using its own OAEP/PSS implementation.

This setting only applies to certificates originating from a Windows system store.

**UseSystemRandom**: Enables or disables the use of the OS PRNG.Use this global property to enable or disable the use of operating system-driven pseudorandom number generation.

**XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]**: Defines an OID mapping to descriptor names for the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN.This property defines custom mappings between Object Identifiers (OIDs) and descriptor names. This mapping specifies how the certificate's issuer and subject information (ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements respectively) are represented in XML signatures.

The property accepts comma-separated values where the first descriptor name is used when the OID is mapped, and subsequent values act as aliases for parsing.

Syntax:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]=PrimaryName,Alias1,Alias2");
```

Where:

OID: The Object Identifier from the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN that you want to map.

PrimaryName: The main descriptor name used in the XML signature when the OID is encountered.

Alias1, Alias2, ...: Optional alternative names recognized during parsing.

Usage Examples:

Map OID 2.5.4.5 to SERIALNUMBER:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[2.5.4.5]=SERIALNUMBER");
```

Map OID 1.2.840.113549.1.9.1 to E, with aliases EMAIL and EMAILADDRESS:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[1.2.840.113549.1.9.1]=E,EMAIL,EMAILADDRESS");
```

**XMLRDNDescriptorPriority[OID]**: Specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID.This property specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID that allows to reorder descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during signing.

**XMLRDNDescriptorReverseOrder**: Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in RDN.Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to true (as specified in RFC 2253, 2.1).

**XMLRDNDescriptorSeparator**: Specifies the separator used between descriptors in RDN.Specifies the separator used between descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to ", " value.
