[jira] [Created] (CXF-3655) Role based authorization not working with DefaultSecurityContext (i.e., when using JAASLoginInterceptor with non-prefixed role names)

Role based authorization not working with DefaultSecurityContext (i.e., when using JAASLoginInterceptor with non-prefixed role names)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CXF-3655
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3655
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 2.4.1
            Reporter: Aki Yoshida
            Assignee: Aki Yoshida
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.4.2, 2.5


org.apache.cxf.interceptor.security.DefaultSecurityContext's isUserInRole(String) is not working with jetty's nor virgo's role configuration. This method assumes a role principal to have interface java.security.acl.Group. 

However, both jetty and virgo represent role principals using their own principal classes
org.eclipse.jetty.plus.jaas.JAASRole or org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.authentication.Role, respectively.

And these role classes do not implement java.security.acl.Group.

So, in order to check if the specified role matches the role-principals assigned to the current context, the specified role must be compared against those principals set in the subject that are not equal to the user principal.
