cdaefa:EFA Policy Assertion SAML2 Binding

SAML 2.0 Profile for ECR Policy Assertions

Assertion Element				Opt	Usage Convention
@Version				R	MUST be “2.0”
@ID				R	URN encoded unique identifier (UUID) of the assertion
@IssueInstant				R	time instant of issuance in UTC
Issuer				R	address URI that identifies the endpoint of the issuing service
Subject				R	This element defines the subject confirmation method of the user in order to use the Policy Assertion as a supporting token. Moreover, it defines the subject name identifier that accords with the user identity from an Identity Assertion.
	NameID			R	Identifier of the HP given in the Identity Asstertion encoded as an X.509 subject name, an e-Mail address or as a string value (unspecified format). Only identifiers must be used that can be long-term tracked back to an individual person.
		@Format		R	MUST be urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:unspecified or urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:X509SubjectName or urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress For providing an OID as a subject identifier the unspecified format must be used. The OID must be provided as a string encoded in ISO format.
	SubjectConfirmation			R
		@Method		R	This element MUST hold a URI reference that identifies a protocol to be used to authenticate the subject.[SAML2.0core] The value of this element MUST be set to urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:cm:holder-of-key
		SubjectConfirmationData		R
			ds:KeyInfo	R	The XML Signature [XMLSignature] element MUST embed a cryptographic key that is only held by the user. This can be the user’s public key (ds:KeyValue/ds:RSAKeyValue), the complete user’s X.509 certificate (ds:X509Data/ds:X509Certificate), or an encrypted symmetric key (xenc:EncryptedKey [XMLEncryption]). This symmetric key MUST be encrypted by using the public key of the consumer service’s certificate [eFA PKI 1.2].
Conditions				R
	@NotBefore			R	time instant from which the assertion is useable. This condition MUST be assessed by the assertion consumer to proof the validity of the assertion.
	@NotOnOrAfter			R	Time instant at which the assertion expires. This condition MUST be assessed by the assertion consumer to proof the validity of the assertion. The maximum validity timespan for a Policy Assertion MUST NOT be more than 4 hours.
XACMLPolicyStatement				R
	Policy or PolicySet			R	Policy or PolicySet that expresses the given authorization (see section below for details).
ds:Signature				R	Enveloped XML signature of the issuer of the Policy Assertion (see section below for details).

Assertion Signature

Every Policy Assertion MUST be signed by its issuer. The XML signature MUST be applied by using the saml:Assertion/ds:Signature element as defined below.

Signature Parameter	Usage Convention
CanonicalizationMethod	SHOULD be http://www.w3.org/2001/10/xml-exc-c14n#
Transformation	Enveloped signature transform acc. to section 6.6.4 of [W3C XMLDSig] SHOULD be used (http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#enveloped-signature). In addition, exclusive canonicalization SHOULD be defined as transformation (http://www.w3.org/2001/10/xml-exc-c14n#, acc. [W3C XMLDSig] and [W3C XML-EXC 1.0]). As inclusive namespaces other prefixes than the ones defined in EFA Namespaces MUST NOT be used.
SignatureMethod	For signing assertions the signature method http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha256 or http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#rsa-sha1 SHOULD be used. An assertion consumer MAY reject signatures that use SHA-1 for digesting.
DigestMethod	For signing assertions the digest method http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#sha1 or http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#sha256 SHOULD be used. An assertion consumer MAY reject SHA-1 digests.
KeyInfo	This element MUST either contain a wsse:SecurityTokenReference element which references the X.509 certificate of the assertion’s issuer by using a subject key identifier OR contain a ds:X509Data element which contains the X.509 certificate of the assertion issuer.
