I've just experienced what seems to be the same error, though with a

Our 3.4.6 IdP is also now seeing the same thing - as is the new v4 IdP.

Comparing the assertion for CAT with a "known good" assertion (against an SP
which doesn't assert any algorithm requirements), I note these differences:

I don't know a huge amount about the inner workings of the different algorithms, but I do wonder
if SimpleSAMLphp doesn't support "rsa-oaep" but does support "rsa-oaep-mgf1p"
but, because the first one is listed first it's using that?
