> Within the soap:body/EncryptedData/SecurityTokenReference element, Glassfish 
> Metro is requiring wsse:KeyIdentifiers instead of wsse:Reference elements 
> when referring to SAML Assertions.  Metro appears correct because the SAML 
> Token Profile does not define usage of wsse:Reference for SAML Assertions, 
> only KeyIdentifier or EmbeddedReference. (Section 3.3 of SAML Token Profile 
> of 1 Dec. 2004 pdf lines 250-272.)
> The attached patch will switch SecurityTokenReference from wsse:Reference to 
> wsse:KeyIdentifier when handling SAML Assertions.  I've confirmed Metro web 
> service providers will now work with this patch.  However, backwards 
> compatibility issues with systems expecting the current wsse:Reference may 
> need to be taken into account.
> WSS4J has another problem with not being able to decrypt SOAP responses that 
> use wsse:KeyIdentifier instead of wsse:Reference for SAML Assertions.  
> Namely, org.apache.ws.security.processor.ReferenceListProcessor's 
> getKeyFromSecurityTokenReference() method will need changing to be able to 
> work with SAML Assertions coming from a wsse:KeyIdentifier element instead of 
> wsse:Reference.  I was not immediately successful in getting this second part 
> to work because I could not see how a SAMLTokenProcessor can be initialized 
> from a KeyIdentifier instead of the Reference element within this method.
