I am attempting to implement SAML 2.0 by signing the response, instead of the Assertion. I have 3 existing vendors that accept my signature at the Assertion level, however a new vendor is requesting it at the protocol / response level. I have been Googling and debugging for about 8 hours, and cannot find a valid example of what I am doing wrong. My code below shows clearly what I am doing, and the last 10 lines or so of it are the differences that I have implemented (within the if / else). Also, I noticed in my XML that my SignatureValue and DigestValue are both empty. Can anyone point me towards some clear documentation, or better yet, an example of a working response signature using openSAML? At this point, any help is appreciated.
Assertion assertion = OpenSamlHelper.CreateSamlAssertion(
issuer.trim(), recipient.trim(), domain.trim(), subject.trim(),
attributes);
//
// Sign
//
Credential signingCredential = getSigningCredential(keystore, storetype, storepass, alias, keypass);
Signature signature = (Signature) Configuration.getBuilderFactory()
.getBuilder(Signature.DEFAULT_ELEMENT_NAME)
.buildObject(Signature.DEFAULT_ELEMENT_NAME);
signature.setSigningCredential(signingCredential);
signature.setSignatureAlgorithm(SignatureConstants.ALGO_ID_SIGNATURE_RSA_SHA1);
signature.setCanonicalizationAlgorithm(SignatureConstants.ALGO_ID_C14N_EXCL_OMIT_COMMENTS);
SecurityConfiguration secConfiguration = Configuration.getGlobalSecurityConfiguration();
NamedKeyInfoGeneratorManager namedKeyInfoGeneratorManager = secConfiguration.getKeyInfoGeneratorManager();
KeyInfoGeneratorManager keyInfoGeneratorManager = namedKeyInfoGeneratorManager.getDefaultManager();
KeyInfoGeneratorFactory keyInfoGeneratorFactory = keyInfoGeneratorManager.getFactory(signingCredential);
KeyInfoGenerator keyInfoGenerator = keyInfoGeneratorFactory.newInstance();
KeyInfo keyInfo = null;
try {
keyInfo = keyInfoGenerator.generate(signingCredential);
} catch (Exception e) {
logger.error(e);
}
signature.setKeyInfo(keyInfo);
String saml = "";
try {
MarshallerFactory marshallerFactory = Configuration.getMarshallerFactory();
if (signatureType == SignatureType.Response) {
response.setSignature(signature);
marshallerFactory.getMarshaller(response).marshall(response);
}
if (signatureType == SignatureType.Assertion) {
assertion.setSignature(signature);
marshallerFactory.getMarshaller(assertion).marshall(assertion);
}
Signer.signObject(signature);
UPDATE: The XML I was getting with the above code did not include a signatureValue or Digest Value, like below..

After moving the Signer.signObject(signature); to a point after the assertion was attached to the response, I receive the following XML..

I had the same problem, but after I added
And
I tried to sign and artifact response using this code, just switching the entityDescriptor to an artifactResponse and it worked fine. http://mylifewithjava.blogspot.no/2012/11/signing-with-opensaml.html
Try to skip the KeyInfo part. Your not getting any marshalling errors?
