David Jencks commented on GERONIMO-643:
---------------------------------------

revision 169130 provides at least a partial fix for this problem by making sure 
the UDP never has a transport guarantee of "N/A".  I'd prefer additional review 
of this area before closing the issue.

> transport guarantees on UDP not always enforced (at least w/jetty)

> 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.
