XML decoding failing for an AuthN Request
by Hannah Short
Hi Satosa users,
I’m having trouble with a SAML request being incorrectly inflated/decoded and then failing with the error “invalid signature” (which I think is misleading). I couldn’t see a known issue about this on GitHub. I’m running Satosa 8.2. Has anyone seen this and has a suggestion?
Both the good and bad AuthN Requests in the logs below validate fine at https://www.samltool.com/decode.php
Example, “bad” encoding from https://sptest.iamshowcase.com/instructions:
