What is Secure.SAML?
Secure.SAML is a robust .NET utility library designed to generate signed SAML 2.0 Response messages. It provides a clean, type-safe API for creating SAML assertions with support for multiple cryptographic signing algorithms and flexible configuration options.
Getting Started?
i. Installation
Install the latest version of Secure.SAML nuget package with command below.
Install-Package Secure.SAML
ii. Implementation: Using Secure.SAML
You can use this .Net library to generate signed SAML 2.0 Response with following parameters below-
key="Recipient"is Recipient or Consumer URLkey="Issuer"is value for Issuer Name or domainkey="AudienceRestrictions"is (name/value) dictionary for Audience Restrictionskey="NamedId"is value representing the user Identity or subjectkey="CustomAttributes"is (name/value) dictionary for custom attributes to pass to recipient.key="SignatureType"is whether to sign Response or Assertion.key="signingAlgorithm"supports SHA1, SHA256 and SHA512 algorithms.
var saml = new SAML(Func<X509Certificate2> certificateFactory);
var parameters = new Parameters
{
Issuer = "http://ninjacorp.com",
Recipient = "https://xyz.target-link.co.uk:443/saml/api",
AudienceRestrictions = new[] { "xyz.target-link.co.uk" },
NamedId = "NIN0123456",
NameIdFormat = NameIdFormat.Unspecified, // Default - Unspecified
Attributes = new Dictionary<string, string> // Optional, Custom payload to recipient.
{
{ "Custom_key", "value" }
},
SignatureType = SignType.Response, // Default - Response
NotOnOrAfterInMins = 10, // Default - 10 minutes
SigningAlgorithm = SigningAlgorithm.SHA512, // Supports - SHA1, SHA256 & SHA512 (default).
SamlId = Guid.Parse("95AD6A84-95C1-4B39-AE5E-FE1E700C406C"), // Optional, defaults to new guid.
AssertionId = Guid.Parse("B3CA912A-4A6B-4F31-9FD8-FC5E55837656"), // Optional, defaults to new guid.
Timestamp = DateTime.Parse("2018-02-27T09:36:44.0665619Z") // Optional, defaults to DateTime.UtcNow
};
var xmlDocument = saml.Create(parameters); // Returns XMLDocument with Signed SAML.
var base64EncodedString = saml.CreateEncoded(parameters); // Returns Base64 encoded string for Signed SAML.
Example IoC Registration
Container.RegisterType<ISAML>(c=> new SAML(()=> CertificateFactory.Get("signing-cert")));
Example Generated SAML :-
