Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: IBM WebSphere Application Server users of * * SAML Web Single Sign-On (SSO) * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The SAML Web SSO TAI cannot log out * * from a SAML IdP * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Install a fix pack that includes this * * APAR. * **************************************************************** Although the SAML Single Logout Profile is not supported by the SAML Web Single Sign-On Trust Association Interceptor (TAI) in WebSphere Application Server, application developers may need the ability to log out from their SAML Identity Provider (IdP) from applications running on WebSphere.
Problem conclusion
The SAML Signle Sign-On TAI is updated to provide the ability to log out from SAML IdPs. The following SAML TAI custom properties are added: logoutUrl sso_<id>.sp.logoutUrl If a value is not specified for sso_<id>.sp.logoutUrl, the value for logoutUrl will be used. The logout request will be redirected to the URL that is specified on the logoutUrl property. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.16 and 9.0.0.11.
