[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-2917) Revisit allow, forbid and selector of sasl mechanisms in Elytron subsystem and client config file

Revisit allow, forbid and selector of sasl mechanisms in Elytron subsystem and client config file ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFCORE-2917 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-2917 Project: WildFly Core Issue Type: Bug Components: Security Affects Versions: 3.0.0.Beta24 Reporter: Jan Kalina Assignee: Jan Kalina Priority: Critical There are some topics for revising in {{allow-all-mechanisms}}, {{allow-sasl-mechanisms}}, {{forbid-sasl-mechanisms}} and {{sasl-mechanism-selector}} of Elytron subsystem and client config file. 1) Since selectors have been introduced in EAP 7.1.0.DR19 what is the reason for {{allow-all-mechanisms}}, {{allow-sasl-mechanisms}} and {{forbid-sasl-mechanisms}}? AFAIK they just provides the subset of configuration which can be set by {{sasl-mechanism-selector}}. It that case {{allow-all-mechanisms}}, {{allow-sasl-mechanisms}} and {{forbid-sasl-mechanisms}} can be completely removed from Elytron configuration because they just duplicates another configuration. Or they provide something which cannot be configured by selectors? 2) These options are mutually exclusive in Elytron subsystem, but all of them can be configured together in Elytron client configuration file. There should be added some check for mutually exclusivity of these options in Elytron client configuration file.
