----------------------------------

I generated a sender-vouches SAML Assertion with WSS4J and fed it back to Axis2 with SOAPUI and I get this exception.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-90
>             Project: WSS4J
>          Issue Type: Bug
>         Environment: Windows XP, Axis2 1.3, WSS4J 1.5.3, 
>            Reporter: Murali Gunasekaran
>            Assignee: Ruchith Udayanga Fernando
>            Priority: Critical
>
> The SAML Core 1.1 specification mentions that the <ds:KeyInfo> element is optional under the <SubjectConfirmation> element (under <Subject>). 
> The following call fails when the incoming SAML assertion contains a <subjectconfirmation> element without a KeyInfo child element:
>   Element e = samlSubj.getKeyInfo();   [ Line 122]
>                     X509Certificate[] certs = null;
>                     try {
>                         KeyInfo ki = new KeyInfo(e, null);
> The constructor KeyInfo(e, null) fails and throws a XMLSecurityException when e is null (which is true when samlSubj.getKeyInfo() returns null)
