Hello there,

I (credit goes to upstream) have been able to narrow down the
authentication issue we were experiencing with the Nextcloud desktop client.

Please note, up to know the latest ownCloud client is still working fine
except it is not keeping the SAML token after the system reboots/user
logs out.


The TDF Nextcloud instance has 2 issues:

1. XSS whitelisting

According to the logs of my Nextcloud client [1], we can see the page
answering back with the SAML token cannot be loaded properly due to a
font issue.

It appears the location of these fonts haven't been whitelisted properly
leading to the Nextcloud client webview (qt5-webengine) to not load them
to avoid a potential XSS vulnerability.

Could you please whitelist these resources locations?


2. *not* successful, http result code is 302 [2] --> the connection
issue per se

Could you please disable "Use SAML auth for the Nextcloud desktop
clients (requires user re-authentication)" in the Nextcloud server admin
settings? SAML SSO remains active without this parameter. It seems this
(unclear) parameter has been set because old desktop clients handled
saml internally/differently.
