> Key: WSS-238
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-238
> Project: WSS4J
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: WSS4J Core
> Affects Versions: 1.5.9
> Reporter: Glen Mazza
> Assignee: Ruchith Udayanga Fernando
> Attachments: EncryptedDataPatch.txt

>
> Per CXF bug CXF-2894: http://tinyurl.com/23jx6cx
> Within the soap:body/EncryptedData/SecurityTokenReference element, Glassfish
> Metro is requiring wsse:KeyIdentifiers instead of wsse:Reference elements
> when referring to SAML Assertions. Metro appears correct because the SAML
> Token Profile does not define usage of wsse:Reference for SAML Assertions,
> only KeyIdentifier or EmbeddedReference. (Section 3.3 of SAML Token Profile
> of 1 Dec. 2004 pdf lines 250-272.)
> The attached patch will switch SecurityTokenReference from wsse:Reference to
> wsse:KeyIdentifier when handling SAML Assertions. I've confirmed Metro web
> service providers will now work with this patch. However, backwards
> compatibility issues with systems expecting the current wsse:Reference may
> need to be taken into account.
> WSS4J has another problem with not being able to decrypt SOAP responses that
> use wsse:KeyIdentifier instead of wsse:Reference for SAML Assertions.
> Namely, org.apache.ws.security.processor.ReferenceListProcessor's
> getKeyFromSecurityTokenReference() method will need changing to be able to
> work with SAML Assertions coming from a wsse:KeyIdentifier element instead of
> wsse:Reference. I was not immediately successful in getting this second part
> to work because I could not see how a SAMLTokenProcessor can be initialized
> from a KeyIdentifier instead of the Reference element within this method.
