Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: IBM WebSphere Application Server * * WS-Security enabled JAX-WS applications * * and SAML * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: An Issuer with a Format attribute * * cannot be created in a SAML token * * created with newSAMLToken * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Install a fix pack that contains this * * APAR. * **************************************************************** When a new SAML token is created using the API newSAMLToken, a Format attribute cannot be added to the Issuer element in the SAML token. For instance, you may want this: <Issuer Format="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format: X509SubjectName">CN=Alice, O=IBM, C=US</Issuer> But you can only get this: <Issuer>CN=Alice, O=IBM, C=US</Issuer>
Problem conclusion
The WS-Security runtime is updated to allow you to specify the Format attribute on the Issuer in the SAML token. To specify the Format attribute, add the following property to the SAMLIssuerConfig.properties file: IssuerFormat=(desiredFormat) For example: IssuerFormat=urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:X509Subje ctName The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix packs 7.0.0.27, 8.0.0.5, and 8.5.0.2.
