Research direction
Start by reading RFC 7522, linked in the issue, to understand the SAML 2.0 assertion grant requirements and how they bridge authentication with OAuth 2.0 authorization. Done means Spring Security supports this grant type for institutions needing that bridge, but the issue does not identify entry points, tests, or a narrower implementation scope.
