SRV.12.2 Declarative Security
The security model applies to the static content
part of the web application and to servlets within
the application that are requested by the client.
The security model does not apply when a servlet
uses the RequestDispatcher to invoke a static
resource or servlet using a forward or an include.
The spec is available at:
