> Hello !
> I think there is a major security bug in the seamspace example, which will give a user the permissions of the user which has been logged in before.
> To reproduce the scenario:
> 1. login as user demo.
> 2. click the back button or enter the login page manually in the url of your browser
> 3. login as another user.
> the second user will have the admin permissions of the demo user!
> Problem is that the authenticate method will not be invoked if you are already logged in ( even as another user) and the old principal with the assigned permissions will stay in memory.
> Greetings
>  D.Croe
