Konrad Windszus resolved SLING-4701.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
> SlingAuthenticator.isAnonAllowed matches for all paths starting with the same
> characters
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-4701
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4701
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Authentication
> Affects Versions: Auth Core 1.3.6
> Reporter: Lars Krapf
> Assignee: Konrad Windszus
> Labels: authentication
> Attachments: SlingAuthenticator.patch, sling-4701-doc.patch

>
> The SlingAuthenticator check if anonymous access is allowed compares paths
> with String.startsWith. If the holder.path does not end with a '/' it will
> erroneously match a different path that starts with the same characters, even
> if it is not a descendant of the first path.
> Example:
> - Allow anonymous acces on '/'
> - Deny anonymous access on a path '/blubb'
> -> Authentication is enforced on a request to '/blubb-blah' - which is wrong.
