"--id-attr" just defines an ID attribute (like DTD or schema).

Hi

Some background.  I have been updating the perl module XML::Sig and
one of the things I added was the ability to sign any XML nodes that
have ID as an attribute.

I use xmlsec1 as a test case to ensure that my resulting documents can
be validated with xmlsec1 (and vice-versa that XML::Sig can validate
documents signed by xmlsec).

So in this case I wanted a DSA signed XML that has both the
samlp:Response ID=identifier_1" and <saml:Assertion ID="identifier_2"
signed by the same key

Essentially I wanted to see how xmlsec signs multiple parts of the
same XML file.

I notice the spec says that you can use multiple references in a
single signature but it appears the most applications sign the
documents twice,

In the case then, I would sign the XML once for identifier_2 with
xmlsec and then repeat for identifier_1 as it will need to sign the
embedded signature from the first signing.

I thought you might be able to use the two

--id-attr:ID "Response"
--id-attr:ID "Assertion"

at the same time to sign both sections in one pass.

Not sure what do you mean. If you want to sign both signatures, then
you need to run xmlsec1 tool twice with correct --node-id, --node-xpath,
or --node-name params:

Ah, it will not sign both nodes with an ID?

I see two signatures in the document. By default xmlsec1 tool will sign
the first signature it finds.

Hi

I am attempting to sign https://pastebin.com/36Nvqdpp with a dsa key:

xmlsec1 --sign --privkey-pem t/dsa.private.key --id-attr:ID "Response"
--id-attr:ID "Assertion" t/xml-sig-unsigned-dsa-multiple.xml

It does not show any error messages however it does not sign the
output.  Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
