Stub SAML Identity Provider (IdP)

The Stub SAML Identity Provider library allows users to easily spin up stub SAML IdP servers in test environments.

This is not a "real" IdP and should not be used in production environments. It is intended only for use in testing environments.

Installation and Usage

Add this to the Gemfile of your Rails app in your test environment:

gem 'stub_saml_idp'

Add to your routes.rb file, for example:

get '/saml/auth' => 'saml_idp#new'
post '/saml/auth' => 'saml_idp#create'

Create a controller that looks like this, customize to your own situation:

class SamlIdpController < StubSamlIdp::IdpController
  before_action :find_account
  # layout 'saml_idp'

  def idp_authenticate(email, password)
    user = @account.users.where(:email => params[:email]).first
    user && user.valid_password?(params[:password]) ? user : nil
  end

  def idp_make_saml_response(user)
    encode_SAMLResponse(user.email)
  end

  private

    def find_account
      @subdomain = saml_acs_url[/https?:\/\/(.+?)\.example.com/, 1]
      @account = Account.find_by_subdomain(@subdomain)
      render :status => :forbidden unless @account.saml_enabled?
    end

end

The most minimal example controller would look like:

class SamlIdpController < StubSamlIdp::IdpController

  def idp_authenticate(email, password)
    true
  end

  def idp_make_saml_response(user)
    encode_SAMLResponse("you@example.com")
  end

end

Keys and Secrets

To generate the SAML Response it uses a default X.509 certificate and secret key... which isn't so secret. You can find them in SamlIdp::Default. The X.509 certificate is valid until year 2032. You can customize these values by setting the properties x509_certificate and secret_key using a prepend_before_action callback within the current request context or setting them globally via the SamlIdp.config.x509_certificate and SamlIdp.config.secret_key properties.

The fingerprint to use, if you use the default X.509 certificate of this gem, is:

9E:65:2E:03:06:8D:80:F2:86:C7:6C:77:A1:D9:14:97:0A:4D:F4:4D

Service Providers

To act as a Service Provider which generates SAML Requests and can react to SAML Responses use the excellent ruby-saml gem.
