SAML response from ADFS

Hi all,

we are trying to configure Splunk on premise (7.3.6) to work with SAML and ADFS but we are stuck with some errors:

with signedAssertion = false we see in internal logs:

 

ERROR Saml - Failed to parse issuer. Could not evaluate xpath expression //saml:Assertion/saml:Issuer or no matching nodes found. No value found in SamlResponse for key=//saml:Assertion/saml:Issuer

 

with signedAssertion = true

 

ERROR UiSAML - Verification of SAML assertion using the IDP's certificate provided failed. Error: start node xmlSecNodeSignature not found in document

 

 

Any suggestions?

We solved our problem by following Splunk support suggestion to remove encryption from ADFS as specified in chapter 13 of this guide:

Had the same error message to an adfs server with encryption and in my case this worked, dont know if it is correct.

I added the encrypted private key to signAuthnRequest certificate, which  is this authentication.conf parameter:

[saml]
clientCert = cert_and_encrypted_private_key.pem

The password of the encypted private key was configured to the parameter sslPassword of the same stanza 
sslPasswort = 

No this parameter could be set to true:

signAuthnRequest = true

and reloaded authentication to let the sslPasswort be hashed.

Worked for me.
