How to set up RSA Federated Identity Manager (FIM) 2.5 SAML 1.0 compliant services
Prior to setting up the RSA Federated Identity Manager (FIM) hot fix (FIM2511-FT3-E001-11.zip) to configure FIM server services, SAML requests were of version 1.0:

<soapenv:Envelope
xmlns:soapenv=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/
xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance>
    <soapenv:Body>
        <samlp:Request
          IssueInstant="2006-03-15T22:26:51Z"
          MajorVersion="1"
          MinorVersion="0"
          RequestID="_3e1b50fc204dbbe0849c065916c3be91590ed93d"
          xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#"
          xmlns:saml="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:assertion"
          xmlns:samlp="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:protocol">
            <samlp:AssertionArtifact>
                AAEbuqrPjR1XORIHk5YAV8I4sM0nKP2CLV+h1CMiWbnkaWvvlJ0g4Ess
            </samlp:AssertionArtifact>
        </samlp:Request>
    </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

After applying the currently available patch to setup FIM server services, the SAML requests became of version 1.1:

<soapenv:Envelope
xmlns:soapenv=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/
xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance>
    <soapenv:Body>
        <samlp:Request
          IssueInstant="2006-03-15T22:48:16Z"
          MajorVersion="1"
          MinorVersion="1"
          RequestID="_e1ffbe6e14d578010b542ecda5244748da1568d9"
          xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#"
          xmlns:saml="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:assertion"
          xmlns:samlp="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:protocol">
            <samlp:AssertionArtifact>
                AAEbuqrPjR1XORIHk5YAV8I4sM0nKP2CLV+h1CMiWbnkaWvvlJ0g4Ess
            </samlp:AssertionArtifact>
        </samlp:Request>
    </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Cause

This hot fix (FIM2511-FT3-E001-11.zip) to set up the RSA Federated Identity Manager (FIM) services is compliant only to the SAML 1.1 version of FIM

Resolution

This issue has been resolved in a hot fix to RSA Federated Identity Manager (FIM) 2.5. Contact RSA Security Customer Support to obtain hot fix FIM2510-FT1-E001-8.zip which sets up the FIM services compliant with SAML 1.0.
