Hi all,

currently i'm struggling with the handling of digital download products. 
(Version is 1057550 but would guess we will merge to current trunk very soon 
again) The "normal" handling works fine. Configuring the product, adding the 
content, buying, download using the "downloadDigitalProduct" method works as 
intended.
But in my system the contend is accessible using the "stream" url. (e.g. 
/content/control/stream?contentId=12231) So if somebody knows ofbiz he might 
get access to all downloads by simply guessing the content ids. There seems be 
a way using a custom genericContentPermission Service. But to be honest, for 
something like digital downloads i would guess there is a standard mechanism 
like the one in downloadDigitalProducts which protects this files in general, 
without writing a custom permission service. (which i haven't discovered yet) 
But if its required to write a new one, are there any suggestions to get this 
working an efficient way? I'm thinking of checking the ProductContentType to 
make sure the digital downloads are not served using the stream. But that 
sounds not very efficient to me. And it also leads to some leaks as soon as  
the configuration gets inconsistent. (For some reason the ProductContent is 
removed, but not the Content and Resource entity.) Not more secure but although 
even slower, checking the OrderRoleAndProductContentInfo to make the user has 
the permission to get this content, but even than, i have to ensure its a 
digital download content. My last idea, adding a custom attribute to the 
content when creating (uploading the file) the content. But that feels like a 
quick fix to me. Therefore i'm open to any suggestions.

Best Regards,

Guido Esch
