SAML 2.0 Authentication with Single Use Policy Enabled Causes Policy Server Failure (53113)

Symptom:

The Policy Server on a Solaris system acting as a Service Provider is failing when a SAML 2.0 authentication scheme is configured with the Enforce Single Use Policy option enabled.

Solution:

One of the parameters being passed from the SAML authentication scheme to the logging mechanism was NULL causing the crash. The SAML authentication scheme has been modified to ensure that it does not pass the null argument.
