Hi Anil, This looks like a great start. I see that there are quite a few TODO items on the list. Any timeline on them?

Here's thought. I think AJAX security can be split into either: a) REST endpoint security (which goes back to securing the REST endpoint classes)

b) URL security Now for the former, I think we should use the DeltaSpike @Secured facilities (I don't know exactly in what state they are right now, as existing stuff is interspersed with roadmap stuff in my head right now).

Agreed, there is lots to like here :-) Initial thoughts: * Need to simplify drools setup (but not complaining, as I know this is WIP :-) * We should wrap the authentication API and configuration you are using with DeltaSpike authentication. This should tidy up the configuration a lot I think. Let's discuss this in a separate thread * Drop the requirement to use a JEE complaint authentication form. These things are a nightmare. Instead, we need to authenticate the user via JAAS using the DS authentication API. This then means we can use any form we like in the front end. * As Marius alludes to, it would be nice to be able to secure REST endpoints using DeltaSpikes security bindings. We could add a binding type that will defer to Drools. Advantantage of this is that we can the get a context about the invocation.

Actually Marius is just talking about restricting access to REST endpoints, probably using an annotation on the endpoint. > >> b) URL security >> >> Now for the former, I think we should use the DeltaSpike @Secured facilities (I don't know exactly in what state they are right now, as existing stuff is interspersed with roadmap stuff in my head right now). >> >> Marius >> >> >> On 2012-07-27, at 11:29 AM, Anil Saldhana <Anil.Saldhana(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: >> >>> https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/SECURITY/TicketMonster >>> >>> We can discuss about it here. > _______________________________________________ > security-dev mailing list > security-dev(a)lists.jboss.org > https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/security-dev _______________________________________________ security-dev mailing list security-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/security-dev
