Ocassionally there's a scenario where a SAML token must be parsed without the WSFederationAuthentication module. Note that when the WSFam can be used, parsing is straightforward.
For us, it was one of our old applications that still can't be upgraded to .NET 4.5, because of reasons ;), and we wanted to drop the old WIF runtime (the one that targets older .NET versions). For someone else it can be another scenario, e.g. you have the SAML token as string and just want the IPrincipal out of the token.
The solution is to think of the token as it was the regular XMLDsig signed XML - the assertion node is signed and the signature's reference points back to it:

What you should do is to
- validate the signature
- accept or reject the signature's certificate
- parse the token to retrieve claims required to create the IPrincipal
public class SamlSignedXml : SignedXml
{
public SamlSignedXml(XmlElement e) : base(e) { }
public override XmlElement GetIdElement(XmlDocument document, string idValue)
{
XmlNamespaceManager mgr = new XmlNamespaceManager(document.NameTable);
mgr.AddNamespace("trust", "http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-sx/ws-trust/200512");
mgr.AddNamespace("wsu", "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd");
mgr.AddNamespace("saml", "urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:assertion");
XmlElement assertionNode =
(XmlElement)document.SelectSingleNode("//trust:RequestSecurityTokenResponseCollection/trust:RequestSecurityTokenResponse/"+
"trust:RequestedSecurityToken/saml:Assertion", mgr);
if (assertionNode.Attributes["AssertionID"] != null &&
string.Equals(assertionNode.Attributes["AssertionID"].Value, idValue, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase)
)
return assertionNode;
return null;
}
}
Note that the XPath assumes the token has the RequestSecurityTokenResponseCollection in the root, make sure your tokens follow this convention (in case of a single token, the
collection node can be missing and the token's root could be just RequestSecurityTokenResponse, update the code accordingly).
The validation code is then
// token is the string representation of the SAML1 token
// expectedCertThumb is the expected certificate's thumbprint
protected bool ValidateToken( string token, string expectedCertThumb, out string userName )
{
userName = string.Empty;
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(token)) return false;
var xd = new XmlDocument();
xd.PreserveWhitespace = true;
xd.LoadXml(token);
XmlNamespaceManager mgr = new XmlNamespaceManager(xd.NameTable);
mgr.AddNamespace("trust", "http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-sx/ws-trust/200512");
mgr.AddNamespace("wsu", "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd");
mgr.AddNamespace("saml", "urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:assertion");
// assertion
XmlElement assertionNode = (XmlElement)xd.SelectSingleNode("//trust:RequestSecurityTokenResponseCollection/trust:RequestSecurityTokenResponse/trust:RequestedSecurityToken/saml:Assertion", mgr);
// signature
XmlElement signatureNode = (XmlElement)xd.GetElementsByTagName("Signature")[0];
var signedXml = new SamlSignedXml( assertionNode );
signedXml.LoadXml(signatureNode);
X509Certificate2 certificate = null;
foreach (KeyInfoClause clause in signedXml.KeyInfo)
{
if (clause is KeyInfoX509Data)
{
if (((KeyInfoX509Data)clause).Certificates.Count > 0)
{
certificate =
(X509Certificate2)((KeyInfoX509Data)clause).Certificates[0];
}
}
}
// cert node missing
if (certificate == null) return false;
// check the signature and return the result.
var signatureValidationResult = signedXml.CheckSignature(certificate, true);
if (signatureValidationResult == false) return false;
// validate cert thumb
if ( !string.IsNullOrEmpty( expectedCertThumb ) )
{
if ( !string.Equals( expectedCertThumb, certificate.Thumbprint ) )
return false;
}
// retrieve username
// expires =
var expNode = xd.SelectSingleNode("//trust:RequestSecurityTokenResponseCollection/trust:RequestSecurityTokenResponse/trust:Lifetime/wsu:Expires", mgr );
DateTime expireDate;
if (!DateTime.TryParse(expNode.InnerText, out expireDate)) return false; // wrong date
if (DateTime.UtcNow > expireDate) return false; // token too old
// claims
var claimNodes =
xd.SelectNodes("//trust:RequestSecurityTokenResponseCollection/trust:RequestSecurityTokenResponse/trust:RequestedSecurityToken/"+
"saml:Assertion/saml:AttributeStatement/saml:Attribute", mgr );
foreach ( XmlNode claimNode in claimNodes )
{
if ( claimNode.Attributes["AttributeName"] != null &&
claimNode.Attributes["AttributeNamespace"] != null &&
string.Equals( claimNode.Attributes["AttributeName"].Value, "name", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase ) &&
string.Equals( claimNode.Attributes["AttributeNamespace"].Value, "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase ) &&
claimNode.ChildNodes.Count == 1
)
{
userName = claimNode.ChildNodes[0].InnerText;
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
A couple of comments here.
First, the XPath could possibly be shortened to reflect the possibility of a missing collection node.
Then, the code assumes there's the name claim that contains the username but it could be the windowsaccountname or maybe yet another claim type.
