SAMLIdPServer Class

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The SAMLIdPServer class represents a SAML identity provider.

Syntax

class secureblackbox.SAMLIdPServer

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.

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 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: signer.ExternalCrypto.KeyID = "MainSigningKey"; signer.ExternalCrypto.KeySecret = "abcdef0123456789";

tls_ciphersuites = property(get_tls_ciphersuites, set_tls_ciphersuites)

Default Value

""

Remarks

A list of ciphersuites separated with commas or semicolons. Each ciphersuite in the list may be prefixed with a minus sign (-) to indicate that the ciphersuite should be disabled rather than enabled. Besides the specific ciphersuite modifiers, this property supports the all (and -all) aliases, allowing all ciphersuites to be blanketly enabled or disabled at once.

Note: the list of ciphersuites provided to this property alters the baseline list of ciphersuites as defined by tls_base_configuration. Remember to start your ciphersuite string with -all; if you need to only enable a specific fixed set of ciphersuites. The list of supported ciphersuites is provided below:

tls_revocation_check Property

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

Syntax

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

tls_revocation_check = property(get_tls_revocation_check, set_tls_revocation_check)

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.

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.

add_id_psso_link Method

Adds an SSO URL to the list.

Syntax

def add_id_psso_link(sp_index: int, url: str, relay_state: str) -> int: ...

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.

add_user Method

Registers known user credentials.

Syntax

def add_user(login: str, password: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

Call this method to register a pair of known user's credentials with the server.

Registers known user credentials.

Syntax

def add_user_with_email(login: str, email: str, password: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

Call this method to register known user's credentials with the server. In addition to Login and Password this method also associates an Email address with this user.

clear_users Method

Clears the database of registered users.

Syntax

def clear_users() -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to remove all stored user credential details.

config Method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

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 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.

do_action Method

Performs an additional action.

Syntax

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;....

get_provider_property Method

Returns the value of a custom provider property.

Syntax

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

Remarks

This method, together with set_provider_property, 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.

The following properties are currently supported:

• ContactPerson
• OrganizationName
• OrganizationDisplayName
• OrganizationURL
• OrganizationLang

load_sp_metadata Method

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

Syntax

def load_sp_metadata(file_name: str) -> int: ...

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.

process_generic_request Method

Processes a generic HTTP SAML request.

Syntax

def process_generic_request(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 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 offline_mode.

remove_id_psso_link Method

Removes the specified SSO link.

Syntax

def remove_id_psso_link(index: int) -> None: ...

Remarks

Multiple URLs may be used on an IdP to initiate the single sign-on (SSO) session. You can add new links using add_id_psso_link, and remove ones that are no longer needed with RemoveIdPSSOLink.

Saves the IdP configuration to a metadata file.

Syntax

def save_metadata(file_name: str) -> None: ...

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.

set_provider_property Method

Sets the value of a custom provider property.

Syntax

def set_provider_property(name: str, value: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method, together with get_provider_property, 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.

The following properties are currently supported:

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

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

Remarks

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

class SAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventParams(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 SAMLIdPServer:
@property
def on_external_sign() -> Callable[[SAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventParams], None]: ...
@on_external_sign.setter
def on_external_sign(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventParams], 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: 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_metadata_request Event

Notifies the application about the metadata request.

Syntax

class SAMLIdPServerMetadataRequestEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_id() -> int: ...

  @property

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

# In class SAMLIdPServer:
@property
def on_metadata_request() -> Callable[[SAMLIdPServerMetadataRequestEventParams], None]: ...
@on_metadata_request.setter
def on_metadata_request(event_hook: Callable[[SAMLIdPServerMetadataRequestEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
