Hi,

In order to support eIDAS profile in IS, as per the 4 eIDAS specifications
in [1], there are a set of requirements to be considered including message
format, cryptographic requirements etc. Those requirements has been
summarized in [2].

This is regarding the handling and inclusion of attributes into exchanged
messages in eIDAS network. As per the eIDAS SAML attribute profile
specification, requesting user attributes MUST be carried out dynamically
by including them in a <saml2p:AuthnRequest>. There are a set of mandatory
and optional attributes according to the eIDAS minimum data sets for
natural and legal persons (i.e. Natural person is one who can be
identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an
identifier such as a name [3]. A legal person is any human being, firm, or
government agency that is recognized as having legal rights and
obligations, such as having the ability to enter into contracts, to sue,
and to be sued [4]).

The eIDAS attribute profile support has been currently implemented as
follows.

   1. Include eIDAS attribute profile support in travelocity sample for
   testing purposes.
   2. Process the eIDAS attributes in authentication request and send to
   the requested attributes to framework.
   3. Introduced a new dialect for "http://eidas.europa.eu/attributes"; and
   configure it in the SP Claim Configuration as the SP Claim mapping Dialect.
   Include support for multiple SP dialects considering the support for
   multiple SAML attribute profiles as eIDAS.
   4. In order to get the user claims which are mapped to the SP dialect,
   in the framework side filter out based on the SP dialect to local claim
   mappings, if SP claim dialect is configured.
   5. Process the response retrieved from the framework and send the
   response to eIDAS network, in appropriate format.



Appreciate your comments and suggestions on above approach and please find
the following concerns.

   - With the requested attributes in the authentication request, as per
   the specification, we may send the AttributeConsumingServiceIndex as well.
   Currently we have only the basic attribute profile support in SAML. So when
   filtering out the requested claims, we need to send both the requested
   claims in SP configuration and the claims in the request, if
   AttributeConsumingServiceIndex is retrieved. WDYT?


   - As per the current implementation for eIDAS support, first we give
   priority to the SP configured claims set, if it's not available consider
   the requested claims in the request. With the oauth request object feature,
   the logic for filtering out the requested claims is somewhat different
   (Requested claims should be configured in SP claims configuration, and only
   sending the requested claims in request which are configured in SP). So I
   think we need to come up with a common solution, if we moving the requested
   claim filtering to framework. Shall we use this approach as the common?


Appreciate your ideas on this.
