> SecurityContext doesn't work with WebLogic Principals
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AMQ-904
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-904
> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 4.0.1
> Reporter: Aaron Mulder
> Fix For: NEEDS_REVIEWED
>
>
> SecurityContext.isInOneOf attempts to determine whether a user has one of a
> set of possible principals. It does this by using HashSet.retainAll, which
> relies on equals and hashcode.
> This doesn't work for WebLogic principals (the variable "set" in that method
> always ends up empty). I'm not totally clear on why, but I notice that the
> principals generated by a WebLogic authentication have signature data, while
> the principals created as the "eligible principals" using the same WebLogic
> classes (weblogic.security.principal.WLSGroupImpl) have null signature data.
> I speculate that WebLogic signs the principals it creates and that equals
> and/or hashCode consider the signature.
> It would be ideal if SecurityContext.isInOneOf manually compared the
> principal class and principal name instead of relying on the equals and/or
> hashCode methods of the underlying principal class.
