Pontus Amberg updated JCR-3188:
-------------------------------

    Status: Patch Available  (was: Open)

Adds geronimo-jacc_1.1_spec to jackrabbit-core & jackrabbit-parent.
Adds logic to extendAuthentication() in RepositoryImpl that tries to fetch the Subject with JACC if Subject.getSubject() fails.

>             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: jackrabbit-core
>    Affects Versions: 2.3.5
>         Environment: JCA Jackrabbit, JEE container, preauthenticated subject
>            Reporter: Pontus Amberg

> The extendAuthentication() method in RepositoryImpl could try to use JACC /JSR-115 ( http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=115 ) to get a preauthenticated subject if Subject.getSubject() fails ( see JCR-1584 ).
> This seems to make it possible in for example JBoss to get a session without specifying any credentials in the repository.login() method if the user already is authenticated.
