The SAMLSPServer module represents a SAML service provider.

Syntax

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 LoadIDPMetadata method or its stream-based variant. 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. server.LoadIDPMetadata("their_metadata.xml"); // contains "<?xml version="1.0"?><md:EntityDescriptor ID="ab12" ... </md:EntityDescriptor>";
• Configure the main server capabilities: // 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: 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 MetadataURL that you've provided above, in which case saving it to a file is not necessary. server.SaveMetadata("my_metadata.xml");

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 BaseDir 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 ProtectedResources property. If ProtectedResources is empty, the server considers all the files in BaseDir 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.

Config Method (SAMLSPServer Module)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func config(configurationString: String) throws -> String

- (NSString*)config:(NSString*)configurationString;

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration 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, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

DoAction Method (SAMLSPServer Module)

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func doAction(actionID: String, actionParams: String) throws -> String

- (NSString*)doAction:(NSString*)actionID :(NSString*)actionParams;

Remarks

DoAction 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;....

GetClientBuffer Method (SAMLSPServer Module)

Obtains a pending connection buffer.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func getClientBuffer(connectionID: Int64) throws -> Data

GetProviderProperty Method (SAMLSPServer Module)

Returns the value of a custom provider property.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func getProviderProperty(name: String) throws -> String

- (NSString*)getProviderProperty:(NSString*)name;

Remarks

This method, together with SetProviderProperty, 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

The ConnectionID identifies the connection that requested the assertion. AssertionOrigin and AssertionType specify the type of assertion that was prepared and its disposition, and Content contains the body of the assertion. You can alter the body if required, but please keep in mind that changes may invalidate signed assertions.

AssertionReceived Event (SAMLSPServer Module)

Notifies the user code about the receipt of an assertion.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

- (void)onExternalSign:(long long)connectionID :(NSString*)operationId :(NSString*)hashAlgorithm :(NSString*)pars :(NSString*)data :(NSString**)signedData;

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: 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(); };

Your code is expected to open the requested resource and be prepared to read from it in subsequent ResourceRead event calls. Check the operation status, and alter it, if needed, through the OperationStatus parameter:

ResourceRead Event (SAMLSPServer Module)

Requests the application to read from an opened resource.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

func onResourceRead(connectionID: Int64, size: Int32, operationStatus: inout Int32)

- (void)onResourceRead:(long long)connectionID :(int)size :(int*)operationStatus;

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 SetClientBuffer 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 ResourceRead calls are needed.

Set OperationStatus to one of the following values:

ResourceRequest Event (SAMLSPServer Module)

Notifies the application that a server resource is requested.
