transport guarantees on UDP not always enforced (at least w/jetty)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-643
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-643
Project: Geronimo
Type: Bug
Components: security
Versions: 1.0-M3
Reporter: David Jencks
Assigned to: David Jencks
The UserDataPermission for a request on an unprotected socket is constructed
erroneously with a transport guarantee of "N/A" rather than "NONE" (0 rather
than 3). As a result, the UDP permission checks succeed rather than fail if
url pattern and method match.
I believe but have not checked that this results in insecure access to
resources that are supposed to be under a transport guarantee only for
unchecked resources. I believe that resources associated with a role have the
transport guarantee at least partially enforced by the login mechanism.
I have not looked into what the tomcat integration does in this situation.
