Hello All,

Is any work done on supporting SAML as authentication mechanism for thick client applications using GSS-API?

I found two references as below:

  1.  SAML Enhanced Client SASL and GSS-API Mechanisms - https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-kitten-sasl-saml-ec/
  2.  RFC 6595 – A Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) and GSS-API Mechanism for the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) - https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6595

Are there any known implementations of these?
I would appreciate much if anyone can let me know if any work done on thick client applications using GSS-API to use SAML as an authentication mechanism.

Thanks much,
Srini
