Title: Message

Thanks 
Tom. I 
assume this is for PE5 as published in draft 07 of the errata document. I will 
monitor this list for any discussion and on Tuesday we can hopefully finalize 
this during our con call.

Subject: [security-services] Errata for 
  NameIDPolicy

  

  
Johan, I'm 
  proposing the following errata text in Core as a two new paragraphs between 
  line 2139 and 2140 related to NameIDPolicy. It centers on  insuring that 
  an IDP only returns a NameID that matches a NameIDPolicy  (in terms of 
  Format and SPNameQualifier):

  
"When a Format defined in Section 8.3.7 is 
  used other than urn:oasis:names:TC:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:unspecified or 
  urn:oasis:names:TC:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:encrypted, then if the identity 
  provider returns any assertions, the Format value of the <NameID> 
  within any <Assertion> MUST be identical to the Format value 
  supplied in the <NameIDPolicy>.

  
If the Format 
  value is set to urn:oasis:names:TC:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:persistent and 
  if the SPNameQualifier is not omitted, then if the identity provider 
  returns any assertions, the SPNameQualifier value of 
  the <NameID> within any <Assertion> MUST be 
  identical to the SPNameQualifier value supplied in the 
  <NameIDPolicy>."

  
Tom.
