This is a SAML2 library for rust.
This is a work in progress. Pull Requests are welcome.
Current Features:
- Serializing and Deserializing SAML messages
- IDP-initiated SSO
- SP-initiated SSO Redirect-POST binding
- Helpers for validating SAML assertions
- Encrypted assertions aren't supported yet
- Verify SAMLRequest (AuthnRequest) message signatures
- Create signed SAMLResponse (Response) messages
The "xmlsec"
feature flag adds basic support for verifying and signing SAML messages. We're using a modified copy of rust-xmlsec library (bindings to xmlsec1 library).
If you want to use the "xmlsec"
feature, you'll need to install the following C libs:
- libiconv
- libtool
- libxml2
- libxslt
- libclang
- openssl
- pkg-config
- xmlsec1
We use nix to faciliate reproducible builds of samael
.
It will ensure you have the required libraries installed in a way that won't cause any issues with the rest of your system.
If you want to take advantage of this, you'll need to put in a little bit of work.
- Install nix
- Install direnv and cachix
# Add ~/.nix-profile/bin to your path first nix profile install nixpkgs#direnv nix profile install nixpkgs#cachix
- Run
cachix use nix-community
to enable a binary cache for the rust toolchain (otherwise you'll build the rust toolchain from scratch) cd
into this repo and rundirenv allow
andnix-direnv-reload
- Install the direnv VS Code extension
Just run nix build
If you followed the above instructions, just cd
-ing into the directory will setup a reproducible dev environment,
but if you don't want to install direnv
, then just run nix develop
.
From their you can build as normal:
cargo build --features xmlsec
cargo test --features xmlsec
You'll need these dependencies for this example
[dependencies]
tokio = { version = "1.28.1", features = ["full"] }
samael = { version = "0.0.12", features = ["xmlsec"] }
warp = "0.3.5"

Here is some sample code using this library:
use samael::metadata::{ContactPerson, ContactType, EntityDescriptor};
use samael::service_provider::ServiceProviderBuilder;
use std::collections::HashMap;
use std::fs;
use warp::Filter;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
openssl_probe::init_ssl_cert_env_vars();
let resp = reqwest::get("https://samltest.id/saml/idp")
.await?
.text()
.await?;
let idp_metadata: EntityDescriptor = samael::metadata::de::from_str(&resp)?;
let pub_key = openssl::x509::X509::from_pem(&fs::read("./publickey.cer")?)?;
let private_key = openssl::rsa::Rsa::private_key_from_pem(&fs::read("./privatekey.pem")?)?;
let sp = ServiceProviderBuilder::default()
.entity_id("".to_string())
.key(private_key)
.certificate(pub_key)
.allow_idp_initiated(true)
.contact_person(ContactPerson {
sur_name: Some("Bob".to_string()),
contact_type: Some(ContactType::Technical.value().to_string()),
..ContactPerson::default()
})
.idp_metadata(idp_metadata)
.acs_url("https://localhost:8080/saml/acs".to_string())
.slo_url("https://localhost:8080/saml/slo".to_string())
.build()?;
let metadata = sp.metadata()?.to_string()?;
let metadata_route = warp::get()
.and(warp::path("metadata"))
.map(move || metadata.clone());
let acs_route = warp::post()
.and(warp::path("acs"))
.and(warp::body::form())
.map(move |s: HashMap<String, String>| {
if let Some(encoded_resp) = s.get("SAMLResponse") {
let t = sp
.parse_base64_response(encoded_resp, Some(&["a_possible_request_id"]))
.unwrap();
return format!("{:?}", t);
}
format!("")
});
let saml_routes = warp::path("saml").and(acs_route.or(metadata_route));
warp::serve(saml_routes).run(([127, 0, 0, 1], 8080)).await;
Ok(())
