             Summary: Do not ignore security annotations and deployment descriptor configurations on EJBs in the absence of explicit security domain configuration
                 Key: AS7-5862
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5862
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: EJB
    Affects Versions: 7.1.2.Final (EAP)
            Reporter: Josef Cacek
            Assignee: jaikiran pai
             Fix For: 7.2.0.Alpha1


Consider the following example:
{code}
@Stateless
public class SecureBean 
{

   @RolesAllowed("role1")
   public void restrictedRoles()
   {
    ...
   }

   @DenyAll
   public void denyEveryone()
   {
     ...
   }

}
{code}
Notice that the bean methods use EJB security annotations to restrict access *however* the bean doesn't have any explicit @SecurityDomain configured (not even in jboss-ejb3.xml). Right now, AS7 ignores the security restriction on that bean allows everyone to invoke on it, as if security wasn't configured for that bean. This has confused users who expect the invocations to fail since they have used the javax.ejb.* security annotations to restrict access. Many users have asked for a feature where the security domain is defaulted (if not explicitly specified) in cases like this.

This JIRA is expected to introduce this feature in AS 7.2.x
