Hi.
I believe I have resolved my issues and have a functioning SATOSA instance in my pre-prod environment.
I hit 5 main items (so far) and hope that capturing can help others have an easier story.
I’m interested in helping improve docs and need guidance as to where and how – github wiki? Fork repo then do a pull request?
Reflections on using SATOSA in pre-prod use marching toward full production use so far:
* Starting from zero to this stage was non-small but any other proxy story would have been more effort IMO.
* These items were costly in time to come by and hope that it helps shorten implementations to capture them.
* If I had them, SATOSA is a slam dunk on fastest and ‘thinnest’ deployment.
Kudos to the work put into SATOSA and for future work on the horizon.
Thoughts and questions welcome as always .. my notes and details on how I resolved things are below.
C
Main challenges and steps taken to have SATOSA operating as expected for attribute passing and assertion handling
=======================================================
1. Sp.xml proved impactful on parsing if it had too much in it thus rendering the filter attributes empty
===========
I had ACS entries for required/requested attributes which seem to have bumped my internal_attributes filter sufficiently to zero (empirical observation)
My resolution: remove those elements as well as the MD contact info from the sp.xml metadata appeared to have resolved this first step
Suggestion: more clarity on this element would help.
1. YAML syntax on how to ingest an aggregate in the ‘backend’ was tough to decipher and documentation is thin or maybe aged out.
===========
My resulting format working for my docker image: satosa/satosa:latest for the backend.yaml is:
<snip>
metadata:
remote:
- {url: "https://url.to/fed.xml", cert: "/opt/satosa/etc/pki/testfed.crt"}
<snip>
This does not align with documentation that I’ve encountered for SATOSA.
Suggestion: configuration for multi-lateral federation would benefit to be an example. As would version sensitivity of it and more examples to show what would be sufficient to run
1. Internal_attributes.yaml mapping transformed email to mail thus downstream was ‘no email, no access!’
===========
The mapping of email to mail OIDs – YIKES! Who knew that PKCS_9 +1 vs UCL_DIR_PILOT+3 were different? I hated myself on this one
* The hurt was in internal_attributes.yaml had
* Mail:
* Saml: [email, emailAddress, mail]
* As such it translated the Shib assertion from ‘mail’ to ‘email’ OID
Action taken to resolve: set saml: [mail] for the mail element
Suggestion: there’s a lot to talk about here on mapping – this is a place for some good practices and what’s there looks good for just working but the transposition was subtle to detect. Hard to say how to make it easier without more thought.
1. Run SATOSA behind apache to trap errors better was tough to find and used a slightly different way than the WSGI interface
===========
The reference to error handling is a bit oblique as there’s more than one way to do it and the WSGI apache proxy was not immediately there for me
Here’s the snippet from the apache2 config that allows me to handle the 404’ing of access for a more graceful error page handling:
#
# proxy SATOSA so we can handle 404's better
# don’t forget to a2en proxy; a2en proxy_http in apache2
# ProxyErrorOverride is **CRITICAL** to trap the 404 passed up by gunicorn.
Proxypass /Saml2 http://127.0.0.1:8000/Saml2
ProxyPassReverse /Saml2 http://127.0.0.1:8000/Saml2
ProxyErrorOverride On
ErrorDocument 404 /errors/404.html
Suggestion: This is a strong need for error handling. Templating it for the enhancement listed in the issue tracker not so much as just give me some plain html locations to use or mount in the container rather than punting to a proxy above resulting in a proxy of a proxy.
1. To handle ADFS assertions inbound to SATOSA properly needed the backend.yaml/federation facing settings to want_response_signed=False and not ‘true’
===========
Testing various IdPs like Shibboleth and ADFS revealed that to use ADFS out of the box with a SAML trust to SATOSA I needed want_response_signed=False.
* This deploys as ‘true’ for SATOSA recommended (and is a good posture to be fair!) but ADFS won’t play fair with it that I could tell.
* This was only uncovered while reading ‘Signature error: Signature missing for respose’ in google and found this:
* https://github.com/IdentityPython/pysaml2/issues/490
Suggestion: Again, this is a practitioner configuration. Thankfully the setting is there, now it needs more revelation in documentation and how to use things and consequences of the action like this.

Subject: Guidance sought on allowing attributes to pass through with statosa/statosa:latest
Hi.
I’m trying to work through a SATOSA story of SP with only one IdP configured to be proxied to use a federation aggregates’ metadata. Sign on is working and always get Filter: [] and returning attributes {} when I expect attributes to be sent by SATOSA.
I’m using the docker image Latest and have also tried v4.4.0 with same result. I don’t think I’m too fancy and am using SATOSA ‘out of the box’ and am looking for guidance/insight/suggestions on what may be wrong, missing, or off by a few columns in YAML 😊
I have had success in the past at TIIME in Feb2019 with Matt E. but that was non-docker and a v3.4.8 install: https://lists.sunet.se/pipermail/satosa-users/2019-February/000067.html
I have seen/explored the microservices/ filter_attributes.yaml.example but that is more along suppression rather than permit passage. Must I whitelist everything?
Thanks for any insight/guidance on this. I have a gist with front/backends here: https://gist.github.com/canariecaf/2216d3de5e5872ecaa08cf03548ec559
Happy to jump on Slack and chat there too – is there a slack area for satosa/idpy BTW or the edugain.slack.com location have idpy like venues for chats like this?

Hello satosa users,
O'Reilly Media is working to build out a proper multilateral federation SP
for our platform. We have deployed Shibboleth SP3 for development but are
finding that integrating our existing systems with Shib to be inefficient
and rather kludgy. SATOSA looks like a great fit for our python-based
AuthN/Z OIDC backend but I have only identified a handful of deployments
(E.G. GÉANT and possibly CERN).
We would use it as a SAML backend and OIDC frontend with InCommon's MDQ
feed and, initially, their discovery service as well.
For those who have deployed SATOSA in production, what has your experience
been in terms of reliability and maintainability, either generally or as
compared to Shib SP3? Also, can you share roughly how much ongoing IT and
development time has been needed to maintain a high level of uptime?
I welcome additional feedback and suggestions as well.
Thank you!
-jesse

Is there an option to limit a microservice to either frontend or backend?
If not, I would propose to extend MicroService with 2 bool args, like:
def __init__(self, name, base_url, backend=True, frontend=True, **kwargs):
Thanks, Rainer
Dear Satosa Users,
I'm trying to create a ResponseMicroService which generates a subject identifier of pairwise-id [1] from the eduPersonTargetedID provided by the Home Organization's IdP.
To avoid collisions, I want the input to the generator for the pairwise-id to contain entityID + '!' + eduPersonTargetedID, but the Response Context doesn't appear to contain the entityID of the originating IdP. Evidently I don't understand the model which SATOSA uses to pass information from backend to frontend...
- Is there a way to access the proxied IdP's entityID from a ResponseMicroService?
- Would it be better to generate the attribute in a RequestMicroService?
- Do microservices act in the order that they're defined in proxy_conf.yaml? For example, can I define a microservice to generate the new attribute from an existing attribute, and then filter out the existing attribute.
Any information appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex

Hello,
I have difficulties configuring Satosa in front of my Rocket.Chat
serveur to provide Shibboleth authentication.
I have open an issue on the Github with my configuration files.
I am properly redirected to the WAYF but after the authentication I
have an error.
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xfd in position 0:

I want to again say "thanks" to Ioannis, Rainer, Scott, and everyone
else for their help and instruction during the various IdentityPython
and SATOSA meetings at TIIME this week. Chris Phillips and I were able
to get a SATOSA 3.4.8 deployment working in Chris's idp-installer test
bed. To that end I want to share my notes from the process, at the end
of which an interested party could perform a basic, end-to-end test of
the current SATOSA release using SAMLtest (https://samltest.id/)
1. I installed Ubuntu Server 18.04.1; run the following commands as root
to install the prerequisites:
```sh
apt update
apt dist-upgrade -y
apt install -y git python3-dev build-essential python3-pip libffi-dev
libssl-dev xmlsec1 libyaml-dev libxml2-utils
pip3 install --upgrade virtualenv
virtualenv -p python3 /opt/satosa
/opt/satosa/bin/pip install --upgrade pip setuptools
/opt/satosa/bin/pip install SATOSA
```
This is essentially the Docker image build process, only it uses the
current SATOSA release (etc.) on PyPI.
2. Copy
https://github.com/IdentityPython/SATOSA/tree/v3.4.8/docker/attributemap
s to /opt/satosa/attributemaps.
I'm not sure this is strictly necessary as the built-in pysaml2
attribute maps should be used by default, but it's what the Docker image
build process does.
3. Copy https://github.com/IdentityPython/SATOSA/tree/v3.4.8/example to
/opt/satosa/etc.
4. SATOSA doesn't have a default configuration, so you must provide it
yourself.
```sh
cp /opt/satosa/etc/proxy_conf.yaml.example \
/opt/satosa/etc/proxy_conf.yaml
cp /opt/satosa/etc/internal_attributes.yaml.example \
/opt/satosa/etc/internal_attributes.yaml
cp /opt/satosa/etc/plugins/frontends/saml2_frontend.yaml.example \
/opt/satosa/etc/plugins/frontends/saml2_frontend.yaml
cp /opt/satosa/etc/plugins/backends/saml2_backend.yaml.example \
/opt/satosa/etc/plugins/backends/saml2_backend.yaml
cp /opt/satosa/etc/plugins/microservices/static_attributes.yaml.example
\
/opt/satosa/etc/plugins/microservices/static_attributes.yaml
```
5. You may change the proxy URL (the value of BASE in
/opt/satosa/etc/proxy_conf.yaml), but it _must_ be a method plus
hostname without any trailing slash or path components, e.g.,
`https://proxy.example.com`, not `https://proxy.example.com/` nor
`https://proxy.example.com/satosa`. SATOSA must be hosted at the root
of your web site.
6. Comment out the `idp_blacklist_file` and `disco_srv` settings in
/opt/satosa/etc/plugins/backends/saml2_backend.yaml.
7. Generate IdP, SP, metadata signing, and web site keying material:
```sh
for i in frontend backend metadata https; do
openssl req -batch -x509 -nodes -days 3650 -newkey rsa:2048 \
-keyout /opt/satosa/etc/$i.key -out /opt/satosa/etc/$i.crt \
-subj /CN=proxy.example.com
done
```
8. Download the SAMLtest metadata.
```sh
curl https://samltest.id/saml/sp > /opt/satosa/etc/sp.xml
curl https://samltest.id/saml/idp > /opt/satosa/etc/idp.xml
```
9. Generate the proxy metadata. (How you do this changes in future
releases of SATOSA.)
```sh
. /opt/satosa/bin/activate
cd /opt/satosa/etc
satosa-saml-metadata proxy_conf.yaml metadata.key metadata.crt
--split-frontend --split-backend --dir /opt/satosa/etc
xmllint --format /opt/satosa/etc/Saml2IDP_0.xml >
/opt/satosa/etc/proxy-idp.xml
xmllint --format /opt/satosa/etc/Saml2_0.xml >
/opt/satosa/etc/proxy-sp.xml
```
10. Edit the proxy metadata files to remove the `<ns1:Signature>`
element, else SAMLtest will be unable to load them due to an invalid
signature.
11. Upload the proxy metadata to SAMLtest
(https://samltest.id/upload.php)
12. SAMLtest doesn't release the eduPerson Targeted ID attribute, so
you'll need to change the last three lines of
/opt/satosa/etc/internal_attributes.yaml to the following (and before
anyone says anything, NEVER USE AN EMAIL ADDRESS AS AN IDENTIFIER---this
is just a quick hack to get SATOSA working):
```
hash: [mail]
user_id_from_attrs: [mail]
user_id_to_attr: mail
```
13. Start SATOSA:
```sh
. /opt/satosa/bin/activate
cd /opt/satosa/etc
gunicorn -b0.0.0.0:443 --keyfile https.key --certfile https.crt
satosa.wsgi:app
```
14. At this point you should be able to perform an IdP test
(https://samltest.id/start-idp-test/) by specifying the entity ID of the
proxy's front end, e.g., https://example.com/Saml2IDP/proxy.xml. The
SAMLtest SP will request authentication by your proxy IdP, causing your
proxy SP to request authentication by the SAMLtest IdP. If everything
works right, you will end up back at the SAMLtest SP:
SAMLtest SP ---AuthnRequest---> SATOSA front end (IdP)/back end (SP)
---AuthnRequest---> SAMLtest IdP
SAMLtest SP <---AuthnResponse--- SATOSA front end (IdP)/back end (SP)
<---AuthnResponse--- SAMLtest IdP
I hope this helps other adopters. If you have any questions, please
reply on list so everyone can benefit from the discussion.
Best wishes,
Matthew

Hi Satosa Users List,
Firstly, I think my registration for this email list is still pending (or emails are being swallowed by a spam filter somewhere…) is anyone able to approve? Otherwise, maybe there’s simply no traffic :)
I’m hitting an issue when coming back from my discovery service (PyFF) to Satosa. At the point where Satosa looks up the IdP/SP in PyFF it fails with a bad SSL handshake. Satosa is running with Docker, as is PyFF.
Specific error:
requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='pyff.cern.ch<http://pyff.cern.ch>', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /entities/%7Bsha1%7Dbf0f1310cb092e88484def3c53613f8a10ebde3d (Caused by SSLError(SSLError("bad handshake: Error([('SSL routines', 'tls_process_server_certificate', 'certificate verify failed')],)",),))
I imagine this is because my PyFF instance is running with a certificate that is not publicly trusted. I’ve manually added the certificate to the SSL store in the Satosa docker container (and am able to connect with docker exec satosa_container openssl s_client -connect pyff.cern.ch:443<http://pyff.cern.ch:443> ), but am still hitting an exception in the Satosa code.
Has anyone come across this? Is there a way to specify additional trusted CAs, or request that the MDQ lookup be more lenient (for testing purposes)?
Cheers,
Hannah
Hello,
I’m wondering how I can assert Sirtfi for my Satosa SP proxy. Is there an example anywhere of how to assert the assurance profile and contact, or is it expected that this would be done by my federation registrar?
Thanks,
Hannah
