If the response signature validation is configured incorrectly, you can see error messages
such as:
- A key validation error.
- Digest mismatch.
- Fingerprint mismatch.
Refer to the [troubleshooting section](#troubleshooting) for more information on
debugging these errors.
## Assertion Encryption (optional)
GitLab requires the use of TLS encryption with SAML, but in some cases there can be a
need for additional encryption of the assertions.
This may be the case, for example, if you terminate TLS encryption early at a load
balancer and include sensitive details in assertions that you do not want appearing
in logs. Most organizations should not need additional encryption at this layer.
The SAML integration supports EncryptedAssertion. You need to define the private key and the public certificate of your GitLab instance in the SAML settings:
Your Identity Provider will encrypt the assertion with the public certificate of GitLab. GitLab will decrypt the EncryptedAssertion with its private key.
NOTE: **Note:**
This integration uses the `certificate` and `private_key` settings for both assertion encryption and request signing.
## Request signing (optional)
Another optional configuration is to sign SAML authentication requests. GitLab SAML Requests uses the SAML redirect binding so this is not necessary, unlike the SAML POST binding where signing is required to prevent intermediaries tampering with the requests.
In order to sign, you need to create a private key and public certificate pair for your GitLab instance to use for SAML. The settings related to signing can be set in the `security` section of the configuration.
GitLab will sign the request with the provided private key. GitLab will include the configured public x500 certificate in the metadata for your Identity Provider to validate the signature of the received request with. For more information on this option, see the [ruby-saml gem documentation](https://github.com/onelogin/ruby-saml/tree/v1.7.0). The `ruby-saml` gem is used by the [omniauth-saml gem](https://github.com/omniauth/omniauth-saml) to implement the client side of the SAML authentication.
