[keycloak-user] SAML Assertion Signature Algorithm Validation

Hi,
     I'm currently testing different SAML signature algorithms with our
application and I noticed that regardless of the chosen signature algorithm
for a SAML client, Keycloak will accept assertions signed with another
algorithm (ex: KC signs with SHA256 but accepts SHA1 from the SP).

With many other IdPs, when a signature algorithm is chosen, there's a
validation that the same algorithm is used in both directions. I think this
is something that Keycloak should do too as a security measure. Can this be
done right now or an enhancement request would be required?

Thanks,
