Summary: Cannot access to Principal via Subject.getSubject(AccessController.getContext()) Product: Tomcat 6 Version: 6.0.18 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cannot access to Principal via Subject.getSubject(AccessController.getContext()). Problem is that in method internalDoFilter of ApplicationFilterChain in call of filter chain the code determinate the Principal but don't use it: if( Globals.IS_SECURITY_ENABLED ) { final ServletRequest req = request; final ServletResponse res = response; Principal principal = ((HttpServletRequest) req).getUserPrincipal(); Object[] args = new Object[]{req, res, this}; SecurityUtil.doAsPrivilege ("doFilter", filter, classType, args); args = null; } else { In this manner a SecurityUtil.doAsPrivilege will be called with Principal == null and method execute create a Subject with no Principals. Then call a Subject.doAsPrivileged(subject, pea, null); and this do not propagate Principals. I obtain a Subject without Principals calling Subject.getSubject(AccessController.getContext()).
