[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBNAME-8) Security Permissions for JNDI sensitive operations

[Scott M Stark (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBNAME-8?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12432261#action_12432261 ] 

Scott M Stark commented on JBNAME-8:
------------------------------------


I have added security permission checks when running under a security manager to the jnpserver project for the 5.0.0.CR3 release. The following RuntimePermissions are required for sensitive NamingContext operations:

NamingContext.getHANamingServerForPartition requires RuntimePermission("org.jboss.naming.NamingContext.getHANamingServerForPartition");
NamingContext.setHANamingServerForPartition/removeHANamingServerForPartition requires RuntimePermission("org.jboss.naming.NamingContext.setHANamingServerForPartition");
NamingContext.getLocal requires RuntimePermission("org.jboss.naming.NamingContext.getLocal");
NamingContext.setLocal requires RuntimePermission("org.jboss.naming.NamingContext.setLocal");

The NamingServer has a new org.jboss.naming.JndiPermission(String path, String actions) permission that is adopted from the OpenJDK java.io.FilePermission. It uses only the unix '/' path separator, and has the following actions:
bind - Context.bind permission
rebind - Context.rebind permission
unbind - Context.unbind permission.
lookup - Context.lookup permission.
list - Context.list permission.
listBindings - Context.listBindings permission.
createSubcontext - Context.createSubcontext permission
* - alias for all of the above actions

It also has a special path name <<ALL BINDINGS>> that matches any jndi path, similar to the FilePermission <<ALL FILES>> path.
