Django SAML2 Plugin for URL redirection on Logout (usually to an IdP logout)

Project description

django-saml2-auth-signout-redirect

A plugin to redirect users to a URL (usually an ADFS logout URL) in django-saml2-auth

Introduction

By default, django-saml2-auth only signs out users in the local Django application. For security reasons, the logout needs to be passed to the IdP (identity provider). Otherwise, a user who clicks the login button will be logged in again without providing a password (or otherwise). If you are able to sign the request (i.e. provide a cert and key), please see django-saml2-auth-signout-slo. If you are not able -- or do not want -- to sign the logout request, this plugin is your next-best option. Instead of a true Single SignOut, this plugin will let you redirect the user to the IdP's logout page, defaulting to the ADFS idpinitiatedsignin page.

Example

In settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS += (
    ...
    'django_saml2_auth',
    # ensure the plugin is loaded
    'django_saml2_auth_signout_redirect',
    ...
)

# this is the "usual" config object from django-saml2-auth
SAML2_AUTH = {
    'DEFAULT_NEXT_URL': '/',
    'PLUGINS': {
        # use this package in lieu of DEFAULT signout plugin 
        'SINGOUT': ['REDIRECT'],
    },
    # optionally specify the URL
    'LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL': 'https://<idp.com>/<logout>
}

ADFS

By default, this package redirects a user to <SSO Endpoint>/idpinitiatedsignon.aspx which provides manual login/logout on ADFS servers. Unless you're using an unconventional SSO path, this should work out-of-the-box.
