SAMLIdPServer Component

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The SAMLIdPServer component represents a SAML identity provider.

Syntax

TsbxSAMLIdPServer

Remarks

The identity provider in the SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) exchange flow represents the server that issues authentication assertions for single sign-on (SSO).

Requests received by the IdP server from known service providers (SP) are processed automatically, in accordance with known SP metadata and IdP options. If the request is correct, the client is redirected to the IdP for authentication. The authentication algorithm depends on the IdP options and may be reduced to a simple IP check, X.509 certificate authentication, or login credentials check.

};

Default Value

crcAuto

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.

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 Their use involves some latency because there is normally some delay between the time when a certificate was revoked and the time the subsequent CRL mentioning that is published.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.

This property is not available at design time.

AddIdPSSOLink Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Adds an SSO URL to the list.

Syntax

int __fastcall AddIdPSSOLink(int SPIndex, String URL, String RelayState);

Remarks

Use this method to add a new single sign-on (SSO) link. The method returns the index of the new link in the internal list of SSO links.

SPIndex specifies the index of the service provider configuration, URL contains the relative URL for the SSO, and RelayState contains the value of the corresponding SAML parameter.

According to SAML 2.0 specification, the RelayState parameter may be used by the SAML binding in order to convey and preserve state information. If this parameter is present in a SAML request message, the responding party must include the same exact parameter into the response to this request.

In many applications, when using IdP-initiated single sign-on, the IdP uses RelayState to indicate to the SP the URL to which it should redirect after the successful sign-on.

AddUser Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Remarks

Use this method to remove all stored user credential details.

Config Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, 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, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

DoAction Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Syntax

String __fastcall DoAction(String ActionID, String ActionParams);

Remarks

DoAction is a generic method available in every component. 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;....

GetProviderProperty Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

• OrganizationName
• OrganizationDisplayName
• OrganizationURL
• OrganizationLang

LoadSPMetadata Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Loads the metadata required for information exchange with the service provider.

Syntax

int __fastcall LoadSPMetadata(String FileName);

Remarks

The Service provider (SP) may have a lot of different options and requirements for interactions with the Identity provider (IdP). 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 such file generated by the service provider.

FileName specifies the metadata file name.

ProcessGenericRequest Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Processes a generic HTTP SAML request.

Syntax

DynamicArray<Byte> __fastcall ProcessGenericRequest(DynamicArray<Byte> Request);

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 returned value 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 OfflineMode.

RemoveIdPSSOLink Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Removes the specified SSO link.

Syntax

void __fastcall RemoveIdPSSOLink(int Index);

Saves the IdP configuration to a metadata file.

Syntax

void __fastcall SaveMetadata(String FileName);

Remarks

Use this method to save the Identity Provider (IdP) configuration in the form of XML metadata in the file specified by FileName. This file may be transferred to service providers (SP) to adjust their interaction processes.

SetProviderProperty Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Sets the value of a custom provider property.

Syntax

void __fastcall SetProviderProperty(String Name, String Value);

Remarks

This method, together with GetProviderProperty, provides an extensible way of managing the Identity 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.

typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerConnectEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerConnectEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerConnectEvent OnConnect = { read=FOnConnect, write=FOnConnect };

Remarks

The component 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 SessionClosed or SessionEstablished.

Disconnect Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Fires to report a disconnected client.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
} TsbxSAMLIdPServerDisconnectEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerDisconnectEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerDisconnectEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerDisconnectEvent OnDisconnect = { read=FOnDisconnect, write=FOnDisconnect };

Remarks

The component fires this event when a connected client disconnects.

Error Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Information about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int ErrorCode;
  String Description;
} TsbxSAMLIdPServerErrorEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerErrorEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerErrorEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerErrorEvent OnError = { read=FOnError, write=FOnError };

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.

ExternalSign Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Handles remote or external signing initiated by the server protocol.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  String OperationId;
  String HashAlgorithm;
  String Pars;
  String Data;
  String SignedData;
} TsbxSAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerExternalSignEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerExternalSignEvent OnExternalSign = { read=FOnExternalSign, write=FOnExternalSign };

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 component via the SignedData parameter.

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

The component 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: 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(); };

MetadataRequest Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Notifies the application about the metadata request.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  String Metadata;
} TsbxSAMLIdPServerMetadataRequestEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerMetadataRequestEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerMetadataRequestEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerMetadataRequestEvent OnMetadataRequest = { read=FOnMetadataRequest, write=FOnMetadataRequest };

Remarks

The component uses this event to notify the application about an incoming metadata request. The suggested metadata text is provided through the Metadata parameter. The application can adjust it as required if it needs to.

Notification Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

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

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String EventID;
  String EventParam;
} TsbxSAMLIdPServerNotificationEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerNotificationEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerNotificationEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerNotificationEvent OnNotification = { read=FOnNotification, write=FOnNotification };

Remarks

The component fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the component. 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 component, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.

SessionClosed Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

This event is fired when the IdP server has closed a session.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
} TsbxSAMLIdPServerSessionClosedEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerSessionClosedEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerSessionClosedEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerSessionClosedEvent OnSessionClosed = { read=FOnSessionClosed, write=FOnSessionClosed };

Remarks

ConnectionID contains the identifier of the closed session.

SessionEstablished Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

This event is fired when a new session has been established.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  String Username;
} TsbxSAMLIdPServerSessionEstablishedEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerSessionEstablishedEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerSessionEstablishedEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerSessionEstablishedEvent OnSessionEstablished = { read=FOnSessionEstablished, write=FOnSessionEstablished };

Remarks

ConnectionID contains the identifier of the new session, Username specifies the client's address and Username.

VerifyCredentials Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Passes user credentials to the application for verification.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  String Username;
  String Password;
  String Body;
  bool Accept;
} TsbxSAMLIdPServerVerifyCredentialsEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxSAMLIdPServerVerifyCredentialsEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxSAMLIdPServerVerifyCredentialsEventParams *e);
__property TsbxSAMLIdPServerVerifyCredentialsEvent OnVerifyCredentials = { read=FOnVerifyCredentials, write=FOnVerifyCredentials };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about authentication attempts and adjust the acceptance result as required. This event fires after the user credentials have been validated against the configured database, and the value of the Accept parameter reflects the outcome of the validation.

The Username and Password parameters contain the provided credentials, and the Body parameter contains the unparsed form data.

Config Settings (SAMLIdPServer Component)

The component accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
