Resolution
- Configure all machines to be the exact same date and time;
- Ask the SP partner to sign the Logout Request before sending it to
the IDP;
Additional Information
(1)
Skew Time
Specifies the number of seconds (as a positive integer) added and
subtracted from the current clock time. This adjustment is to account
for Service Providers with clocks that are not synchronized with the
Identity Provider. The skew time and the Validity Duration determine
how the Policy Server calculates the total time that an assertion is
valid.
To determine the assertion validity, the skew time is subtracted from
the assertion generation time (IssueInstant) to get the NotBefore
time. The skew time is then added to the validity duration and the
IssueInstant to get the NotOnOrAfter time. The following equations
illustrate how the skew time is used:
NotBefore=IssueInstant - Skew Time
NotOnOrAfter=Validity Duration + Skew Time + IssueInstant

(2)
Assertions and Protocols for the OASIS Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) V2.0
The <LogoutRequest> message SHOULD be signed or otherwise
authenticated and integrity protected by the protocol binding
used to deliver the message.
