The SAML validator should be able to parse them automatically and add them
to the attributes map attached in the principal in CAS.  You would either
need to access the Assertion directly or cast the Principal returned from
getPrincipal on the request object.

If you're using the CAS2 protocol (modified) you'll need to  manually parse
the response.  In CAS 3.1.3-rc2 we've added a basic/brute-forced/ugly method
to handle it (mostly its just a poor example of a method you can override to
return the attributes to be added to the principal).
