SAMLIdPServer Component

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The SAMLIdPServer component represents a SAML identity provider.

Syntax

nsoftware.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.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public CertificateList KnownCertificates { get; }

Public Property KnownCertificates As CertificateList

Remarks

Use this property to supply a list of additional certificates that might be needed for chain validation. An example of a scenario where you might want to do that is when intermediary CA certificates are absent from the standard system locations (or when there are no standard system locations), and therefore should be supplied to the component manually.

The purpose of the certificates to be added to this collection is roughly equivalent to that of the Intermediate Certification Authorities system store in Windows.

Do not add trust anchors or root certificates to this collection: add them to TrustedCertificates instead.

Enables the Offline mode.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public bool OfflineMode { get; set; }

Public Property OfflineMode As Boolean

Default Value

True

Remarks

In the Offline mode the server does not open the listening port. Instead, it expects incoming requests to be routed by the application via calls to ProcessSignOnRequest, ProcessLogoutRequest, ProcessSignOnResponse, and other similar methods.

The Offline mode is a handy mechanism for attaching the server to external web engines, such as IIS or Tomcat. It lets you leave the HTTP matters to the engine, and only be responsible for handling the actual SAML requests.

The server's TLS certificates.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public CertificateList TLSServerChain { get; }

Public Property TLSServerChain As CertificateList

Remarks

Use this property to provide a list of TLS certificates for the server endpoint.

A TLS endpoint needs a certificate to be able to accept TLS connections. At least one of the certificates in the collection - the endpoint certificate - must have a private key associated with it.

The collection may include more than one endpoint certificate, and more than one chain. A typical usage scenario is to include two chains (ECDSA and RSA), to cater for clients with different cipher suite preferences.

This property is not available at design time.

AddIdPService Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Registers an IdP service in the IdPServices list.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void AddIdPService(int service, int bindingType, string location, int priority, int index);

Public Sub AddIdPService(ByVal Service As Integer, ByVal BindingType As Integer, ByVal Location As String, ByVal Priority As Integer, ByVal Index As Integer)

Remarks

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

An identity provider can provide a variety of identity services through a selection of endpoints, each supporting one or more transports (or bindings). Typical examples are a single sign-on 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 AddIdPService 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:

idp.AddIdPService(spsSingleSignOnService, csbtRedirect, "/saml/sso", -1, -1); idp.AddIdPService(spsSingleSignOnService, csbtPOST, "/saml/sso", -1, -1);

Use the Service parameter to specify the service to register:

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 SLO services to support POST and Redirect bindings.

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

idp.AddIdPService(spsSingleSignOnService, csbtPOST, "https://idp.identityserver/saml/sso", -1, -1); // absolute path idp.AddIdPService(spsSingleSignOnService, csbtRedirect, "/saml/sso", -1, -1); // relative path

The Priority parameter is nominal as it only specifies the relative priority of the transport in the IdP metadata. The actual transport used, among those supported, depends on the choice of the external service provider / application. 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 identity provider's own service - something that the identity provider provides. This is different to AddSPService method, which registers a foreign service provider's service - something that the identity provider should be aware of.

AddSP Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Registers an SP entity in SPSettings list.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void AddSP(string entityID, string idPSSOLink);

Public Sub AddSP(ByVal EntityID As String, ByVal IdPSSOLink As String)

Remarks

This method adds an empty entry to the SPSettings list of known service providers. When registering a service provider manually (v.s. importing it from its metadata with a ImportSettings call), make sure to register all the individual SP service endpoints (assertion consumer services, single logout services, and so on) manually using the AddSPService method.

Once you have added the SP entry to the list, you can edit it using the SPSettings property.

AddSPService Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Registers an SP service in the SPServices list.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void AddSPService(int service, int bindingType, string location, int priority, int index, string entityID);

Public Sub AddSPService(ByVal Service As Integer, ByVal BindingType As Integer, ByVal Location As String, ByVal Priority As Integer, ByVal Index As Integer, ByVal EntityID As String)

Remarks

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

The identity provider needs to be knowledgeable of external SP services (applications) that it provides services to. That information can either be provided in the form of a metadata file (see ImportSettings), 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 SP service is available through several different transports (bindings), you will need to register each (service, transport) pair individually:

idp.AddSPService(spsAssertionConsumerService, csbtPOST, "https://app.com/saml/acs", -1, -1, "http://app.com/saml/metadata"); idp.AddSPService(spsAssertionConsumerService, csbtRedirect, "https://app.com/saml/acs", -1, -1, "http://app.com/saml/metadata");

Use the Service parameter to specify the service to register:

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. This information is typically provided by the service provider.

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.

The EntityID parameter provides a unique identifier of the service provider. It is common to use the URL of the provider's metadata file as the Entity ID, although that is not a requirement.

Note that this method registers a known service - something that the identity provider should be aware of. This is different to the purpose of the AddIdPService method, which registers the identity provider's own service.

Cleanup Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

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

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void Cleanup();

Public Sub Cleanup()

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.

CompleteAuth Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Initiates transfer of the authentication fact (assertion) to the SP.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public int CompleteAuth(long connectionID, string sessionID, int SPServiceIndex, string relayState, string tag);

Public Function CompleteAuth(ByVal ConnectionID As Long, ByVal SessionID As String, ByVal SPServiceIndex As Integer, ByVal RelayState As String, ByVal Tag As String) As Integer

Remarks

Use this method to pass a SAML assertion to a chosen SP after completion of the IdP-initiated SSO process.

Calling this method is equivalent to navigating to the SP-specific IdP link on the web server running the SAML IdP service.

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 ProcessingCompleted event. This event fires independently of the processing outcome (success or failure), and contains the same ConnectionID that is passed to this call.

You can use this method with or without the OfflineMode.

Config Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public string Config(string configurationString);

Public Function Config(ByVal ConfigurationString As String) As String

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)

Performs an additional action.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public string DoAction(string actionID, string actionParams);

Public Function DoAction(ByVal ActionID As String, ByVal ActionParams As String) As String

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;....

DropClient Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Terminates a client connection.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void DropClient(long connectionId, bool forced);

Public Sub DropClient(ByVal ConnectionId As Long, ByVal Forced As Boolean)

Remarks

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

ExportSettings Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

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

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public string ExportSettings(bool idP, int index);

Public Function ExportSettings(ByVal IdP As Boolean, ByVal Index As Integer) As String

Remarks

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

When exporting IdP settings, adjust the identity provider configuration as required in IdPSettings object before calling this method. Assign MetaSigningCertificate to enforce signing of the metadata XML.

When exporting SP settings, provide the index of the service provider in the SPSettings list.

GetClientBuffer Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Acquires a piece of operation data.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public byte[] GetClientBuffer(long connectionID, string handle);

Public Function GetClientBuffer(ByVal ConnectionID As Long, ByVal Handle As String) As Byte()

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 ResourceWrite event handler, when implementing customized file transfers.

GetProviderProperty Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Returns the value of a custom provider property.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public string GetProviderProperty(string name);

Public Function GetProviderProperty(ByVal Name As String) As String

Remarks

This method, together with SetProviderProperty, 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

GetRequestBytes Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Returns the contents of the received HTTP request.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public byte[] GetRequestBytes(long connectionID, string requestFilter);

Public Function GetRequestBytes(ByVal ConnectionID As Long, ByVal RequestFilter As String) As Byte()

Remarks

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

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public string GetSessionProperty(string sessionID, string name);

Public Function GetSessionProperty(ByVal SessionID As String, ByVal Name As String) As String

Remarks

This method, together with SetSessionProperty, provides an extensible way of managing the Identity 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 SessionCreated and SessionDestroyed events to get notifications about session creation and disposal.

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

• AuthnContextClassRef: the authentication context Auth class.

ImportSettings Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

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

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void ImportSettings(string metadata, bool idP);

Public Sub ImportSettings(ByVal Metadata As String, ByVal IdP As Boolean)

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.

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

The loaded metadata is populated in the IdPSettings or SPSettings object (depending on the value of the IdP parameter).

InitiateArtifactResolve Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Initiates the artifact resolution protocol.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public int InitiateArtifactResolve(long connectionID, string sessionID, int SPServiceIndex, string artifact, string tag);

Public Function InitiateArtifactResolve(ByVal ConnectionID As Long, ByVal SessionID As String, ByVal SPServiceIndex As Integer, ByVal Artifact As String, ByVal Tag As String) As Integer

Remarks

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

You can use this method with or without the OfflineMode.

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

InitiateAuth Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

• C#
• VB.NET

public int ProcessArtifact(long connectionID, string sessionID, string request, string tag);

Public Function ProcessArtifact(ByVal ConnectionID As Long, ByVal SessionID As String, ByVal Request As String, ByVal Tag As String) As Integer

Remarks

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

Artifact messages are typically very simple:

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 ArtifactResolveRequestPrepared event, and, later on, of an event matching the type of the actual message received - such as AuthnRequestReceived.

You can use this method with or without the OfflineMode.

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

Public Sub SetProviderProperty(ByVal Name As String, ByVal Value As String)

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.

The following properties are currently supported:

• ContactPerson
• OrganizationName
• OrganizationDisplayName
• OrganizationURL
• OrganizationLang

SetResponseHeader Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Sets a response header.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void SetResponseHeader(long connectionId, string headerName, string value);

Public Sub SetResponseHeader(ByVal ConnectionId As Long, ByVal HeaderName As String, ByVal Value As String)

Remarks

Use this method to set a response header. A good place to call this method is a request-marking event, such as GetRequest or PostRequest.

SetSessionProperty Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Sets the value of a custom provider session property.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void SetSessionProperty(string sessionID, string name, string value);

Public Sub SetSessionProperty(ByVal SessionID As String, ByVal Name As String, ByVal Value As String)

Remarks

This method, together with GetSessionProperty, provides an extensible way of managing the Identity Provider's session settings that are not available through the primary properties and events of the component.

The following properties can be adjusted for each individual session:

• AuthnContextClassRef: the authentication context Auth class.
• AuthnRequestID: the AuthnRequest ID.
• Certificate: the certificate that signed the request (in base16 DER-encoded format).
• CustomAuthFlow: whether the session uses a custom authentication flow.
• Login: the login name used by the user to authenticate themselves.
• LoginAttempts: the number of login attempts available for the user.
• LogoutRequestID: the LogoutRequest ID.
• NameID: the NameID of the user.
• NameIDPolicyFormat: the name ID policy format.
• NameIDPolicyIdentifier: the name ID policy identifier.
• RelayState: the current (last) relay state entry.
• ResponseLocation: the location where the response should be sent.
• Session: the session ID (the same as you pass as parameter).
• SessionIndex: the cross-network session index 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.

Note: setting a session property invokes a call to SessionStateSave. 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 it will contain a now-unmatching In-Response-To entry.

Start Method (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public void Start();

Public Sub Start()

Remarks

Use this method to start listening for incoming connections.

  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property RequestID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property SP As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Artifact As String
  Public Property Action As Integer
End Class

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 ProcessGenericRequest 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 ArtifactResolveRequestPrepared.

In OfflineMode this event would typically be fired from ProcessArtifact call.

End Class

Remarks

The component fires this event when it has prepared an assertion to be sent to the SP as part of the authentication process. This event may fire from within ProcessSignOnRequest and ProcessSignOnResponse calls when working in OfflineMode, and at any time otherwise.

The RequestID parameter contains the request ID, in response to which the assertion was created. The SP parameter contains the identifier of the service provider where the assertion will be sent to. The Body parameter contains the assertion itself in XML format. The NameID parameter contains the name identifier of the authenticated user, and SessionIndex the unique session index of the new session. The ValidFrom and ValidTo parameters specify the validity period of the assertion.

ExternalSign Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Handles remote or external signing initiated by the server protocol.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnExternalSignHandler OnExternalSign;

public delegate void OnExternalSignHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string OperationId { get; }
  public string HashAlgorithm { get; }
  public string Pars { get; }
  public string Data { get; }
  public string SignedData { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnExternalSign As OnExternalSignHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnExternalSignHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerExternalSignEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property OperationId As String
  Public ReadOnly Property HashAlgorithm As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Pars As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Data As String
  Public Property SignedData As String
End Class

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(); };

LogoutRequestPrepared Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

  Public Property SessionIndex As String
  Public Property Attributes As String
  Public Property ValidFrom As String
  Public Property ValidTo As String
  Public Property Sign As Boolean
  Public Property Encrypt As Boolean
End Class

Remarks

The component fires this event when it is about to preapre an assertion to be sent to the SP as part of the authentication or attribute request process. This event may fire from within the ProcessSignOnRequest and ProcessSignOnResponse calls when working in OfflineMode, and at any time otherwise.

The RequestID parameter contains the request ID, in response to which the assertion is being created. The SP parameter contains the identifier of the service provider where the assertion will be sent to.

The Reason parameter contains the reason for the assertion to be generated. This can be an authentication request or an attribute request being received. The AuthInstant, AuthContext, NameID, SessionIndex, Attributes, ValidFrom, and ValidTo parameters indicate the initial parameters of the new assertion. Further events, such as ReadAttribute or AssertionPrepared will be fired later on to clarify the contents of the assertion.

Notification Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

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

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnNotificationHandler OnNotification;

public delegate void OnNotificationHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerNotificationEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerNotificationEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string EventID { get; }
  public string EventParam { get; }
}

Public Event OnNotification As OnNotificationHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnNotificationHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerNotificationEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerNotificationEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property EventID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property EventParam As String
End Class

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.

This component can fire this event with the following EventID values:

ProcessingCompleted Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

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

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnProcessingCompletedHandler OnProcessingCompleted;

public delegate void OnProcessingCompletedHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerProcessingCompletedEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerProcessingCompletedEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string Tag { get; }
  public int ProcessingResult { get; }
  public string Response { get; }
  public bool Redirect { get; }
}

Public Event OnProcessingCompleted As OnProcessingCompletedHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnProcessingCompletedHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerProcessingCompletedEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerProcessingCompletedEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Tag As String
  Public ReadOnly Property ProcessingResult As Integer
  Public ReadOnly Property Response As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Redirect As Boolean
End Class

Remarks

The component fires ProcessingCompleted to notify the application about completion of an earlier initiated processing operation. It is only fired in OfflineMode in response to calls such as ProcessSignOnRequest, ProcessSignOnResponse, 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 SessionInfoNeeded 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 web page containing a login form.
• 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.

ReadArtifact Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Requests content identified by an artifact from the application.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnReadArtifactHandler OnReadArtifact;

public delegate void OnReadArtifactHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerReadArtifactEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerReadArtifactEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string RequestID { get; }
  public string SP { get; }
  public string Artifact { get; }
  public string Value { get; set; }
  public bool Skip { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnReadArtifact As OnReadArtifactHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnReadArtifactHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerReadArtifactEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerReadArtifactEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property RequestID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property SP As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Artifact As String
  Public Property Value As String
  Public Property Skip As Boolean
End Class

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 an 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.

ReadAttribute Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Requests an attribute from the application.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnReadAttributeHandler OnReadAttribute;

public delegate void OnReadAttributeHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerReadAttributeEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerReadAttributeEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string RequestID { get; }
  public string SP { get; }
  public string NameID { get; }
  public string NameIDFormat { get; }
  public string AttrName { get; set; }
  public string AttrNameFormat { get; set; }
  public string AttrFriendlyName { get; set; }
  public string Value { get; set; }
  public bool Skip { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnReadAttribute As OnReadAttributeHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnReadAttributeHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerReadAttributeEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerReadAttributeEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property RequestID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property SP As String
  Public ReadOnly Property NameID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property NameIDFormat As String
  Public Property AttrName As String
  Public Property AttrNameFormat As String
  Public Property AttrFriendlyName As String
  Public Property Value As String
  Public Property Skip As Boolean
End Class

Remarks

The component fires this event to request an attribute from the application. This event can be invoked multiple times after the AttributeQueryReceived event has fired, to collect every attribute requested.

The application is expected to set the Value and, optionally, AttrNameFormat and AttrFriendlyName for every attribute requested. The AttrName mathes the name requested by the remote party, but the event handler can change it too if required.

If the application has no knowledge of or does not support the AttrName attribute, it can set Skip to true to avoid sending it.

ResourceClose Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Tells the application that it can close the opened resource.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnResourceCloseHandler OnResourceClose;

public delegate void OnResourceCloseHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerResourceCloseEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerResourceCloseEventArgs : EventArgs {

  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string Handle { get; }
}

Public Event OnResourceClose As OnResourceCloseHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnResourceCloseHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerResourceCloseEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerResourceCloseEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String

End Class

Remarks

The component uses this event to notify the application that it can now close the resource opened earlier in its ResourceOpen handler.

ResourceOpen Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Requests the application to open the requested resource.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnResourceOpenHandler OnResourceOpen;

public delegate void OnResourceOpenHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerResourceOpenEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerResourceOpenEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string URL { get; }
  public string HttpMethod { get; }
  public int OperationStatus { get; set; }
  public string Handle { get; set; }
}

  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property URL As String
  Public ReadOnly Property HttpMethod As String
  Public Property OperationStatus As Integer
  Public Property Handle As String
End Class

Remarks

The component fires this event in virtualized mode if the application had returned the fraCustom modifier from the earlier ResourceRequest event call. 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 (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Requests the application to read from an opened resource.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnResourceReadHandler OnResourceRead;

public delegate void OnResourceReadHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerResourceReadEventArgs e);

  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string Handle { get; }
  public int Size { get; }
  public int OperationStatus { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnResourceRead As OnResourceReadHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnResourceReadHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerResourceReadEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerResourceReadEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Handle As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Size As Integer
  Public Property OperationStatus As Integer
End Class

Remarks

The component 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 (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Notifies the application that a server resource is requested.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnResourceRequestHandler OnResourceRequest;

public delegate void OnResourceRequestHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerResourceRequestEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerResourceRequestEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string URL { get; }

  Public ReadOnly Property URL As String
  Public ReadOnly Property HttpMethod As String
  Public Property ResProtected As Boolean
  Public Property ResSpecial As Boolean
  Public Property AllowWriting As Boolean
  Public Property Action As Integer
End Class

Remarks

The component 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 to let the server handle the request automatically, or to fraCustom to handle the request in your code ('virtualize' the request).

This event may fire more than once for one resource if the client is forced to re-submit the request with a session cookie.

Choose Action as one of the following values:

ResourceWrite Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Requests the application to write to an opened resource.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnResourceWriteHandler OnResourceWrite;

public delegate void OnResourceWriteHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerResourceWriteEventArgs e);

Public Class SAMLIdPServerSessionInfoNeededEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public Property SessionID As String
End Class

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:

• SessionCreated 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.
• SessionStateSave : 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 SessionStateSave multiple times for the same SessionID. If this happens, the existing SessionID entry should be overwritten with the fresh session data.
• SessionStateRetrieve : 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.
• SessionInfoNeeded (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 ProcessLogoutRequest but passes an empty SessionID as a parameter.
• SessionDestroyed is called when a session is destroyed. The component can remove the session from the hash table upon receiving this event.

SessionStateRetrieve Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

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

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnSessionStateRetrieveHandler OnSessionStateRetrieve;

public delegate void OnSessionStateRetrieveHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerSessionStateRetrieveEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerSessionStateRetrieveEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }

The component fires this event to request a session state that was previously provided to the application via the SessionStateSave call.

See the SessionInfoNeeded topic for more details about session management in offline mode.

SessionStateSave Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

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

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnSessionStateSaveHandler OnSessionStateSave;

public delegate void OnSessionStateSaveHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerSessionStateSaveEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerSessionStateSaveEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string SessionState { get; }
}

Public Event OnSessionStateSave As OnSessionStateSaveHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnSessionStateSaveHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerSessionStateSaveEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerSessionStateSaveEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionState As String
End Class

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 SessionStateRetrieve call.

See the SessionInfoNeeded topic for more details about session management in offline mode.

SignatureFound Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Notifies the application about the start of signature validation.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnSignatureFoundHandler OnSignatureFound;

public delegate void OnSignatureFoundHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerSignatureFoundEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerSignatureFoundEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public int Scope { get; }
  public string Signer { get; }
  public string TargetID { get; }
  public string TargetType { get; }
  public string IssuerRDN { get; }
  public byte[] SerialNumber { get; }
  public byte[] SubjectKeyID { get; }
  public string SigMethod { get; }
  public string DigestMethod { get; }
  public bool CertFound { get; }
  public bool Validate { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnSignatureFound As OnSignatureFoundHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnSignatureFoundHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerSignatureFoundEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerSignatureFoundEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Scope As Integer
  Public ReadOnly Property Signer As String
  Public ReadOnly Property TargetID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property TargetType As String
  Public ReadOnly Property IssuerRDN As String
  Public ReadOnly Property SerialNumber As Byte()
  Public ReadOnly Property SubjectKeyID As Byte()
  Public ReadOnly Property SigMethod As String
  Public ReadOnly Property DigestMethod As String
  Public ReadOnly Property CertFound As Boolean
  Public Property Validate As Boolean
End Class

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. The TargetID and TargetType provide additional details.

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 component 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 SigningCertificate property and the associated certificates from the Certificates collection, and pass them to the CertificateValidator component to validate its chain.

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

SignatureValidated Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Reports the signature validation result.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnSignatureValidatedHandler OnSignatureValidated;

public delegate void OnSignatureValidatedHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerSignatureValidatedEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerSignatureValidatedEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public int Scope { get; }
  public string Signer { get; }
  public string TargetID { get; }
  public string TargetType { get; }
  public string IssuerRDN { get; }
  public byte[] SerialNumber { get; }
  public byte[] SubjectKeyID { get; }
  public string SigMethod { get; }
  public string DigestMethod { get; }
  public int ValidationResult { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnSignatureValidated As OnSignatureValidatedHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnSignatureValidatedHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerSignatureValidatedEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerSignatureValidatedEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Scope As Integer
  Public ReadOnly Property Signer As String
  Public ReadOnly Property TargetID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property TargetType As String
  Public ReadOnly Property IssuerRDN As String
  Public ReadOnly Property SerialNumber As Byte()
  Public ReadOnly Property SubjectKeyID As Byte()
  Public ReadOnly Property SigMethod As String
  Public ReadOnly Property DigestMethod As String
  Public Property ValidationResult As Integer
End Class

Remarks

This event is fired when the signature validation process is completed.

The Scope parameter specifies the subject of the signature. This can be the outermost SAML message or an embedded assertion. The TargetID and TargetType parameters provide the details.

SignOnPagePrepared Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

The server fires this event upon preparing the sign-on page.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnSignOnPagePreparedHandler OnSignOnPagePrepared;

public delegate void OnSignOnPagePreparedHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerSignOnPagePreparedEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerSignOnPagePreparedEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string RequestID { get; }
  public string SP { get; }
  public string Request { get; }
  public string PageData { get; set; }
  public bool Redirect { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnSignOnPagePrepared As OnSignOnPagePreparedHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnSignOnPagePreparedHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerSignOnPagePreparedEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerSignOnPagePreparedEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property RequestID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property SP As String
  Public ReadOnly Property Request As String
  Public Property PageData As String
  Public Property Redirect As Boolean
End Class

Remarks

The IdP server fires this event to notify the application that the sign-on page (login form) has been formed and is ready to be flushed. Use SignOnPageTemplate to assign the sign-on page template.

The form body is returned via the PageData parameter. You can adjust it in the event handler as required. The Redirect parameter advises whether the form should be returned as a Location header of the HTTP response with the 302 status, or as an HTTP body of text/html type.

SignOnResponseReceived Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Notifies the application about the received response to the sign-on page.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnSignOnResponseReceivedHandler OnSignOnResponseReceived;

public delegate void OnSignOnResponseReceivedHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerSignOnResponseReceivedEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerSignOnResponseReceivedEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public string SessionID { get; }
  public string RequestID { get; }
  public string ResponseData { get; set; }
  public int Action { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnSignOnResponseReceived As OnSignOnResponseReceivedHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnSignOnResponseReceivedHandler(sender As Object, e As SAMLIdPServerSignOnResponseReceivedEventArgs)

Public Class SAMLIdPServerSignOnResponseReceivedEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ConnectionID As Long
  Public ReadOnly Property SessionID As String
  Public ReadOnly Property RequestID As String
  Public Property ResponseData As String
  Public Property Action As Integer
End Class

Remarks

The component uses this event to report that the login form previously generated by the component has been filled in and returned by the user. ResponseData contains the content submitted by the user (the URL-encoded form fields, or any authentication data if the custom authentication flow is used). The application that chose to use custom authentication process can use this data to authenticate the user.

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

TLSCertValidate Event (SAMLIdPServer Component)

Fires when a client certificate needs to be validated.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnTLSCertValidateHandler OnTLSCertValidate;

public delegate void OnTLSCertValidateHandler(object sender, SAMLIdPServerTLSCertValidateEventArgs e);

public class SAMLIdPServerTLSCertValidateEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public long ConnectionID { get; }
  public bool Accept { get; set; }
}
