Abstract: This specification defines a profile for the integration of the
OASIS
Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) Version 2.0 with all versions of
XACML. SAML 2.0 complements XACML functionality in many ways, so a number of
somewhat independent functions are described in this profile: 1) use of SAML
2.0 Attribute Assertions with XACML, including the use of SAML Attribute
Assertions in a SOAP Header to convey Attributes that can be consumed by an
XACML PDP, 2) use of SAML to carry XACML authorization decisions,
authorization
decision queries, and authorization decision responses, 3) use of SAML to
carry
XACML policies, policy queries, and policy query responses, 4) use of XACML
authorization decisions or policies as Advice in SAML Assertions, and 5) use
of
XACML responses in SAML Assertions as authorization tokens. Particular
implementations may provide only a subset of these functions.
TC Description: XACML is expected to address fine grained control of
authorized
activities, the effect of characteristics of the access requestor, the
protocol
over which the request is made, authorization based on classes of activities,
and content introspection (i.e. authorization based on both the requestor and
potentially attribute values within the target where the values of the
attributes may not be known to the policy writer). XACML is also expected to
suggest a policy authorization model to guide implementers of the
authorization
mechanism.
