[jira] Commented: (GERONIMO-1053) Session Bean, Finder, & Method Permissions

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1053?page=comments#action_12357870 ] 

Matt Hogstrom commented on GERONIMO-1053:
-----------------------------------------

Need a read on whether this will get fixed for 1.0 or not.  I suspect that most folks aren't using permissions but does this JIRA imply that permissions are broken as a whole ?

> The web code invoked after the login calls the session bean.

> So it's a little odd that the session bean sees a transaction rolled back exception rather than the real security exception, but whatever.
> The real problem is that both the session bean and the entity bean are covered by identical all-inclusive method permission blocks, so if the user got into the session bean, there should be no reason they can't get into the entity bean.  The syntax above is specifically supported in the ejb-jar-2_1.xsd Schema (#1; "This style is used to refer to all the methods of the specified enterprise bean's home, component, and/or web service endpoint interfaces.")
