Examples

The code example that is used in this topic is taken from the Custom Token sample. This sample provides custom classes that enable processing of Simple Web Tokens (SWT) and it includes an implementation of a passive STS that is capable of serving an SWT token. The STS is implemented by a class that is derived from SecurityTokenService. Many of the methods of the SecurityTokenService class that are called from its token issuance pipeline take a RequestSecurityToken object as one if their parameters. For information about this sample and other samples available for WIF and about where to download them, see WIF Code Sample Index.

The following code example shows an implementation of the SecurityTokenService.GetScope method. The method takes a RequestSecurityToken as one of its parameters and properties of this parameter are used to set properties on the Scope object that is returned by the method.

// Certificate Constants
private const string SIGNING_CERTIFICATE_NAME = "CN=localhost";
private const string ENCRYPTING_CERTIFICATE_NAME = "CN=localhost";

private SigningCredentials _signingCreds;
private EncryptingCredentials _encryptingCreds;
// Used for validating applies to address, set to URI used in RP app of application, could also have been done via config
private string _addressExpected = "http://localhost:19851/";
/// <summary>
/// This method returns the configuration for the token issuance request. The configuration
/// is represented by the Scope class. In our case, we are only capable of issuing a token to a
/// single RP identity represented by the _encryptingCreds field.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="principal">The caller's principal</param>
/// <param name="request">The incoming RST</param>
/// <returns></returns>
protected override Scope GetScope(ClaimsPrincipal principal, RequestSecurityToken request)
{
    // Validate the AppliesTo address
    ValidateAppliesTo( request.AppliesTo );

    // Create the scope using the request AppliesTo address and the RP identity
    Scope scope = new Scope( request.AppliesTo.Uri.AbsoluteUri, _signingCreds );

    if (Uri.IsWellFormedUriString(request.ReplyTo, UriKind.Absolute))
    {
        if (request.AppliesTo.Uri.Host != new Uri(request.ReplyTo).Host)
            scope.ReplyToAddress = request.AppliesTo.Uri.AbsoluteUri;
        else
            scope.ReplyToAddress = request.ReplyTo;
    }
    else
    {
        Uri resultUri = null;
        if (Uri.TryCreate(request.AppliesTo.Uri, request.ReplyTo, out resultUri))
            scope.ReplyToAddress = resultUri.AbsoluteUri;
        else
            scope.ReplyToAddress = request.AppliesTo.Uri.ToString() ;
    }

    // Note: In this sample app only a single RP identity is shown, which is localhost, and the certificate of that RP is 
    // populated as _encryptingCreds
    // If you have multiple RPs for the STS you would select the certificate that is specific to 
    // the RP that requests the token and then use that for _encryptingCreds
    scope.EncryptingCredentials = _encryptingCreds;

    return scope;
}
/// <summary>
/// Validates the appliesTo and throws an exception if the appliesTo is null or appliesTo contains some unexpected address.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="appliesTo">The AppliesTo parameter in the request that came in (RST)</param>
/// <returns></returns>
void ValidateAppliesTo(EndpointReference appliesTo)
{
    if (appliesTo == null)
    {
        throw new InvalidRequestException("The appliesTo is null.");
    }

    if (!appliesTo.Uri.Equals(new Uri(_addressExpected)))
    {
        throw new InvalidRequestException(String.Format("The relying party address is not valid. Expected value is {0}, the actual value is {1}.", _addressExpected, appliesTo.Uri.AbsoluteUri));
    }
}

Remarks

The wst:RequestSecurityToken element (message) contains the parameters and properties used to request a security token from a security token service (STS). The message (or element) is abbreviated as RST. The RequestSecurityToken class contains properties that represent the elements of the RST. An RST can form a request that corresponds to any of the request bindings defined by WS-Trust; for example, the Issuance binding, the Renewal binding, the Validate binding, or the Cancel binding. Many of the properties in the RequestSecurityToken class correspond to elements that are present only in specific kinds of requests as defined by these bindings. Depending on the kind of request a particular RequestSecurityToken object represents or the parameters present in the specific request that it represents, some properties of the object may be null.

The STS returns a response to the request in a message that contains a wst:RequestSecurityTokenResponse element (RSTR). This message is represented by the RequestSecurityTokenResponse class.

For more information about the element that this class represents, see the WS-Trust specification that applies to your scenario: WS-Trust February 2005, WS-Trust 1.3, or WS-Trust 1.4.
