[jira] Updated: (JS2-21) Missing Security Feature: Check roles assigned to any group to user belongs
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-21?page=all ]
Ate Douma updated JS2-21:
-------------------------
Fix Version: 2.0-POST
(was: 2.0-FINAL)
I have to rollback my initial checkin for the security component as it turns out its not 100% fixable in time before the 2.0-FINAL release.
I leave the gui part in though as that's working as it should.
Same thing for JS2-27 although I hadn't committed those changes yet.
These issues will be picked up again after ApacheCON, so hopefully version 2.1 will have thes features.

>
> Key: JS2-21
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-21
> Project: Jetspeed 2
> Type: New Feature
> Components: Security
> Versions: 2.0-FINAL
> Reporter: David Le Strat
> Assignee: Ate Douma
> Fix For: 2.0-POST
>
> Reported by Ate Douma:
> o.a.j.security.impl.RoleManagerImpl.isUserInRole() implementation is
> missing a required feature.
> A User can be part of a Group which can have Roles just like the User itself.
> The isUserInRole() method currently only checks if the specified role is assigned to the user, not if it is assigned to one of the groups the user belongs to.
> The Role definition in Servlet 2.3 SRV.12.4 (which according to portlet PLT.20.2 also applies for portlets) specifies that a user is in a specific role either when assigned directly to the user or
> when assigned to a group the user belongs to.
> Thus according to this definition the RoleManagerImpl.isUserInRole()
> should also check the roles assigned to any group to user belongs to.
