[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBVFS-79) VFSPermission should imply a FilePermission

VFSPermission should imply a FilePermission ------------------------------------------- Key: JBVFS-79 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBVFS-79 Project: JBoss VFS Issue Type: Sub-task Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Reporter: Anil Saldhana Adrian says: ============================== vfs permissions implying other permissions. e.g. permission to vfsfile:/something/in/my/codesource should imply http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/security/Permission.html#imp... permission to file:/something/in/my/codesource and using the java.io.File api to access it. see for example FileURLConnection /** * Return a permission for reading of the file */ public Permission getPermission() throws IOException { return new FilePermission(file.getPath(), "read"); } This is also important for making sure you can't use vfs urls to open connections to things you are not allowed to access. Although I think in that case, the actual vfs implementation code will barf later if you don't have the permission? =========================================== -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
