workspace

                 Key: JCR-2748
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2748
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: jackrabbit-core, security
            Reporter: Justin Edelson


As discussed in this thread: http://sling.markmail.org/thread/st52jejjuxykfxtj, 
the security workspace is, by default, configured with an AccessControlProvider 
which provides a fixed access control policy (i.e. 
o.a.j.core.security.user.UserAccessControlProvider). In order to prevent 
anonymous access to security-related nodes requires the use of an alternate 
AccessControlProvider.

The attached patch provides a simpler mechanism. By adding

<param name="anonymousAccessToSecurityWorkspace" value="false" />

to the configuration of the DefaultSecurityManager, anonymous access to the 
security workspace is forbidden.
