Summary
Deleting a certificate used as an Assertion Decryption Certificate in SAML config, deletes the linked SAML config as well, without any warning.
Repro
1) Create a self-signed certificate
2) Create a SAML config and use the certificate created in Step 1 as the Assertion Decryption Certificate
3) Delete certificate created in Step 1
4) Notice SAML config has been cascade deleted, and no entry has been made into Setup Audit Trail.
Workaround
Prior to deleting the certificate, unlink it from the SAML config (i.e. make sure it is not used as an Assertion Decryption Certificate in a SAML config), and then proceed with deleting the certificate.
