SecurityException thrown when passing a relative path name when backing up
database
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-709
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-709
Project: Derby
Type: Bug
Components: Store, Security
Versions: 10.0.2.0, 10.1.1.0, 10.2.0.0
Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner
Priority: Minor
CALL SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_BACKUP_DATABASE('extinout/bkup1');
ERROR 38000: The exception 'java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(java.util.PropertyPermission user.dir read)' was thrown while evaluating an exp
ression)
Can be seen in the store/encryptionKey.sql test, modify the _app.properties
file to enable the security manager.
Due to logging messages using File.getCanonicalPath in RawStore.java, lines 675
and 686.
Possible solutions:
- use a privileged block and required user.dir permission granted to user.dir
to backup to a relative directory
- use a privileged block,if a security exception is thrown then just display
the relative name, otherwise display the full name. This would allow backups to
succeed without requiring granting additional permissions to derby.jar
- just log the relative path
