Shibboleth3 as IdP

Step 1: Setup Shibboleth3 as Identity Provider

• In conf/idp.properties, uncomment and set 'idp.encryption.optional' to true.
     eg. idp.encryption.optional = true
• In conf/metadata-providers.xml, configure Service Provider like below.
<MetadataProvider xmlns:samlmd="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:metadata"
  id="miniOrangeInLineEntity" xsi:type="InlineMetadataProvider" sortKey="1">
  <samlmd:EntityDescriptor ID="entity" entityID="<SP-EntityID / Issuer from Service Provider Info tab in plugin.>"
    validUntil="2020-09-06T04:13:32Z">
    <samlmd:SPSSODescriptor AuthnRequestsSigned="false" WantAssertionsSigned="true"
    protocolSupportEnumeration="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:protocol">
      <samlmd:NameIDFormat>
        urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress
      </samlmd:NameIDFormat>
    <samlmd:AssertionConsumerService Binding="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-POST"
    Location="<ACS (AssertionConsumerService) URL from Step1 of the plugin under Identity Provider Tab.>"
      index="1" />
    </samlmd:SPSSODescriptor>
    </samlmd:EntityDescriptor>
</MetadataProvider>
• In conf/saml-nameid.properties, uncomment and set default NameID as Email Address like this
idp.nameid.saml2.default=urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress
• In conf/saml-nameid-xml, search for shibboleth.SAML2NameIDGenerators. Uncomment the shibboleth.SAML2AttributeSourcedGenerator bean and comment all other ref beans.
<!-- SAML 2 NameID Generation -->
<util:list id="shibboleth.SAML2NameIDGenerators">
  <!--<ref bean="shibboleth.SAML2TransientGenerator" /> -->
  <!-->ref bean="shibboleth.SAML2PersistentGenerator" /> -->
  <bean parent="shibboleth.SAML2AttributeSourcedGenerator"
  p:format="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress"
  p:attributeSourceIds="#{ {'email'} }" />
</util:list>
• Make sure you have defined AttributeDefinition in conf/attribute-resolver.xml.
<!-- Note: AttributeDefinitionid must be same as what you provided in attributeSourceIds in conf/saml-nameid.xml -->
<resolver:AttributeDefinitionxsi:type="ad:Simple" id="email" sourceAttributeID="mail">
  <resolver:Dependency ref="ldapConnector" />
  <resolver:AttributeEncoderxsi:type="enc:SAML2String" name="email" friendlyName="email" />
</resolver:AttributeDefinition >

<resolver:DataConnector id="ldapConnector" xsi:type="dc:LDAPDirectory" ldapURL="%{idp.authn.LDAP.ldapURL}"
  baseDN="%{idp.authn.LDAP.baseDN}" principal="%{idp.authn.LDAP.bindDN}"
  principalCredential="%{idp.authn.LDAP.bindDNCredential}">
  <dc:FilterTemplate>
    <!-- Define you User Search Filter here -->
    <![CDATA[ (&(objectclass=*)(cn=$requestContext.principalName)) ]]>
  </dc:FilterTemplate>

  <dc:ReturnAttributes>*</dc:ReturnAttributes>
</resolver:DataConnector>
• Make sure you have AttributeFilterPolicy defined in conf/attribute-filter.xml.
<afp:AttributeFilterPolicy id="ldapAttributes">
<afp:PolicyRequirementRulexsi:type="basic:ANY"/>
  <afp:AttributeRuleattributeID="email">
    <afp:PermitValueRulexsi:type="basic:ANY"/>
  </afp:AttributeRule>
</afp:AttributeFilterPolicy>

• Restart the Shibboleth server.
• You need to configure these endpoints in the miniOrange SAML plugin.
