No Mechanism to Override SAML 1.0/1.1 TARGET Query Parameter (99811)

Symptom:

For SAML 1.0 and 1.1, TARGET is a required query parameter for SSO. There is no way to specify a Target URL in the SP-side configuration that can override this parameter, or a way to validate that the target is a protected SiteMinder resource.

Solution:

For SAML 1.0 and 1.1, a new Target URL parameter at the SP-side configuration is now available. This new field can override the Target query parameter. This field has been documented in the help for the SP-side configuration.
