The Needham–Schroeder Secret-Key Authentication Protocol Header Message Notes 1. A->S: A requests S to supply a key for communication A, B, NA with B. S returns a message encrypted in A’s secret key, 2. S->A: {NA , B, KAB, containing a newly generated key KAB and a {KAB, A}KB}KA ‘ticket’ encrypted in B’s secret key. The nonce NA demonstrates that the message was sent in response to the preceding one. A believes that S sent the message because only S knows A’s secret key. A sends the ‘ticket’ to B. {KAB, A}KB 3. A->B: B decrypts the ticket and uses the new key KAB to {NB}KAB 4. B->A: encrypt another nonce NB. A demonstrates to B that it was the sender of the {NB - 1}KAB 5. A->B: previous message by returning an agreed transformation of NB. 95-843 SOA Security SAML 4 Master of Information System Management
The Needham–Schroeder Secret-Key Authentication Protocol Quiz. (0) With respect to Needham-Schroeder, discuss Identification, Authentication and Authorization. (1) What benefits are present in the separation of concerns that have been built into Needham-Schroeder? (2) Why would this protocol work well on an intranet but, at the same time, be hard to scale to the internet? 95-843 SOA Security SAML 5 Master of Information System Management

SAML Web Service Use Case “SAML is different from other security approaches mostly because of its expression of security in the form of assertions about subjects. Other approaches use a central certificate authority to issue certificates that guarantee secure communication from one point to another within a network. With SAML, any point in the network can assert that it knows the identity of a user or piece of data. It is up to the receiving application to accept if it trusts the assertion. Any SAML-compliant software can assert its authentication of a user or data. This is important for the coming wave of business workflow web services standards where secured data needs to move through several systems for a transaction to be completely processed.“ From IBM Developerworks 95-843 SOA Security SAML
What is Identity Management? “In the information systems security space, identity management recently emerged as a new term that covers the following areas of computing: * Provisioning. Adds new users to network operating system directories and application server directories, both inside an enterprise and outside at partner information systems. * Password management. Enables users to have a single set of credentials to sign on to the company information systems. Additionally, it enables users to self-administer their passwords, user account data, and privileges. * Access control. Enables the system to recognize security policies for groups of users. For example, a security policy would prevent people from changing their own job title and instead route a request for a job title change to the appropriate authority. SAML is a protocol specification to use when two servers need to share authentication information. Nothing in the SAML specification provides the actual authentication service…” From IBM Developerworks 95-843 SOA Security SAML
SAML 2.0 • Security Assertion Markup Language • Organization for the Advancement of • Structured Information Standards • (OASIS) Approved March 2005 • Industry standard way of • representing and exchanging assertions • about identity, attributes and entitlements • Vendor neutral • XML based • Uses SOAP, XMLDSig, XMLEnc • SSL is required between servers
SAML 2.0 • SAML falls under the broader topic of • Identity Management. • Identity management applies to both network and federated identity. • Federated Identity refers to the use of identity or authorization decisions across organizational boundaries. • Identity management includes the consideration of identity registration, revocation and termination. • SAML’s focus is on single sign on by applications. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
SAML 2.0 Bottom Line • XML encoded security assertions • XML encoded Request/Reply protocol • Rules on how to incorporate these XML constructs in messages 95-843 SOA Security SAML
SAML 2.0 Drivers • Single Sign On Across Domains • Cookies prevent the need for reauthorization • only within the same domain • SSO interoperability (before SAML little) • Web Service Security (SAML allows for the • exchange of assertions within a SOAP • document) • Federated Identity (consolidate identities • across organizational boundaries) • See Shibboleth 95-843 SOA Security SAML
SAML 2.0 Specification Defines(1) • Assertions about: - authentication acts (e.g., YES, the entity did authenticate in this way at this time) - attributes of subjects (e.g., access rights, credit limits, status) name, value pairs - authorization decisions already made Note: Assertions are usually passed from an identity provider to a service provider. Assertions contain statements used by the service provider to make decisions about access control. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
SAML 2.0 Specification Defines(2) • A Simple Request / Reply protocol - Request Types (queries): authentication authorization attribute - One reply format containing assertions. (authentication, authorization or attribute statements) • The requests and replies occur on an SSL channel. The requestor is typically a service provider and the responder an identity provider. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
SAML 2.0 Specification Defines(3) • Bindings How, for example, is SAML carried within a SOAP document? SOAP Message SOAP Header SOAP Body SAML Request or Response 95-843 SOA Security SAML
SAML 2.0 Specification Defines(4) • Profiles - Rules for embedding, extracting and integrating SAML assertions into messages - Error message handling 95-843 SOA Security SAML
SAML 2.0 Request Types • AuthenticationQuery - request any authentication information held by an authority about a subject – has this subject logged in? • AttributeQuery – request attributes of a subject - What is the role associated with this subject? • AuthorizationDecisionQuery – request a decision on subject s to resource r with evidence e. What is your opinion? 95-843 SOA Security SAML

Terminology From SAML Spec • Assertions are declarations of facts about subjects. • The Identity Provider or SAML Authority or Asserting Party is the entity that makes assertions. • The Service Provider or Relying party Relies on information provided by the identity providers. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Trusted SAML Authority SAML Request SAML Query SAML Response Assertions Relying Party or Service Provider Service Request 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Web SSO Use Case • A web site requires authentication. • The user is transferred to a partner’s web page (both sites are in a “federation”). The partner is a SAML Authority. • The SAML authentication query is passed as well. • If the SAML Authority is satisfied (SAML does not say how) then particular access may be granted and passed (possibly through the browser) to the original web site. • See use case at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAML. • All of this may be over SSL. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Business Transaction Use Case • An employee may be authenticated and may qualify to make purchases for her company. • The seller may make inquiries on an authority known by both buyer and seller. • The authority may vouch for the employee and describe her qualifications. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Authorization Use Case A user attempts to access a resource. The security domain defines a Policy Enforcement Point and a Policy Decision Point. The Policy Enforcement Point makes calls on the Policy Decision Points to check permissions. These calls use SAML on a back channel. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Lower level Use Cases Pull (Trent manages tokens) (1) Alice authenticates with Trent and receives an 8 byte random token. (2) Alice presents a request for service and the token to Bob. (3) Bob passes the token to Trent and receives assertions about Alice. (4) Bob provides Alice with the service. Assume a back end channel and everything over SSL. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Lower Level Use Cases • Push (Bob manages tokens) • Alice authenticates with Trent and Trent calls Bob for SAML token (2) Bob responds with token. He knows she is authentic. (3) Trent returns token to Alice. (4) Alice calls Bob with token. (5) Bob provides Alice with service. Bob need not handle authentication and may only provide tokens to Trent. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
XACML 2.0 Approved by OASIS March 2005 XML Access Control Markup Language 95-843 SOA Security SAML
XACML Goals • Industry standard way of representing • and processing access control policies. • Vendor neutral. • XML based. • Provide for “rule combining algorithms”,e.g.,, • “Deny overrides” or “Permit Overrides” • An XACML policy may specify what a • provider should do when it receives a • SAML assertion. • Seperation of concerns: Don’t bake • authorization policies into code. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Who Implements XACML? Oracle BEA SUN Microsoft ? Not yet. IBM 95-843 SOA Security SAML
XACML • Policy Language Used to describe access control requirements. Who is allowed to do what? • Request/Response Language The request is a query about permissions associated with x. The response is permit, deny, indeterminate, or not applicable. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Drivers • A standard is needed so that policies can be processed and shared • Interoperable • Distributed • Separation of concerns 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Use Case (1) Policy Enforcement Point (PEP) May I act on some resource? Yes/No Requests and responses defined by XACML Policy Decision Point (PDP) The correct policy in XACML needs to be selected and its rules evaluated. 95-843 SOA Security SAML

OpenID • Grassrots effort since 2005 • Web user identification and authentication • OpenID used and provided by: AOL, BBC, Google, IBM, PayPal, Verisign, etc. • Compares a bit with the heavy weight SAML. • Highly scalable – does not depend on pre-existing agreements. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Let’s Give OpenID a drive • A -> B : Service request on B, A’s ID as a URL • B -> C : B Visits URL at C (HTTP Get) • C -> B : HTML Doc holding a pointer to C’s OpenID Server • B -> A : Browser redirect to C’s OpenID Server – many parameters are passed from B to A destined for C – including a nonce 95-843 SOA Security SAML
A -> C : The parameters from B include: mode : checkID_set-up A’s ID as a URL B’s URL, session id and nonce • C authenticates A : OpenID does not dictate how this is done. • C -> A : A browser redirect to B with params destined for B 95-843 SOA Security SAML
A -> B : Params from C. These include: mode: id_res B’s URL, session ID and nonce A’s ID as URL signed [mode, A’s ID as URL, B’s URL and nonce] The signature is encoded as Base 64 association_handle Opaque Handle used for looking up the signing key 95-843 SOA Security SAML
Now, some options… • B ->C : The parameters and the signature – C checks the signature and informs B. B provides service to A. OR • B -> C : A request for the signing key • C -> B : The key is transmitted and B does the checking. B provides service to A. OR • B verifies the signature with a key he has built with C using Diffie-Hellman. The key was established earlier. B provides the service to A. 95-843 SOA Security SAML
