Enhanced Security and Compatibility Guide for SAML Authentication
Description:
The recent update to @node-saml/passport-saml
mandates the signing of the assertion response. To ensure backward compatibility, we have introduced a new configuration option in the UI:
- Require Signed Assertion Response
By default, this option is set to Disabled
to maintain compatibility with existing setups.
Recommendations: We recommend enabling this option as it adds an additional layer of security. However, please be aware that enabling this setting might impact the SAML login functionality.
