SecureAction captures the calling context incorrectly
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-1285
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1285
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Framework
Affects Versions: felix-1.8.1
Reporter: Richard S. Hall
Assignee: Karl Pauls
Fix For: felix-2.0.0
In SecureAction we capture the calling context for optimization purposes, but
the context captures the current stack no matter who is on the stack. Since the
whole point of SecureAction is to allow the framework to perform sensitive
operations without worrying about who is on the call stack, this seems to be a
bug since there could be someone with lower privileges on the stack. I think we
need to capture the calling context inside a privileged block.
