Hi there,
I'll take a shot, as the party guilty of bringing
PolicySecurityController into existence...
As far as the PolicySecurityController and the policy file are
concerned, I think you're doing it completely correctly. That's the
way to do it -- you gave all permissions to the code you trust, and no
permissions to other code. Writing to System.out is however never
subject to a security check.
If you want to disallow access to java.* Packages.* etc, just remove
them from the scope after you invoked initStandardObjects()
It's very late here and I'm barely awake right now, so I won't
elaborate further at the moment -- if you'd need further information,
please shout and I'll try to follow up tomorrow.
Attila.

Hello, folks.
I abuse the Rhino shell on a regular basis and now I'm going for my
first earnest attempt at embedding. Getting the engine to nominally
work is a piece of cake, but security is another matter.
My two overlapping goals for implementing security are, first, to keep
the scripter's paws off Packages.*, java.*, and any other direct
exposure to Java not explicitly allowed by me, and second, to prevent
the scripter from accessing privileged system stuff like file and
socket I/O--except via interfaces provided by me.
The following is a sample embedding; its purpose is to load a
JavaScript function hook() provided in defineHook.js, then call the
function with parameters and display the result.
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import org.mozilla.javascript.*;
import java.security.CodeSource;
import java.security.CodeSigner;
public class Might {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Set up semi-bogus credentials for evaled script
URL url = null;
try {
url = new URL("http://example.com/reader";);
} catch(MalformedURLException e) {}
CodeSigner[] codeSigners = new CodeSigner[] {};
final CodeSource codeSource = new CodeSource(url,codeSigners);
// Boot the engine, load defineHook.js, run hook(3,2), print
result.
ContextFactory cf = new ContextFactory();
cf.call(new ContextAction() {
public Object run(Context cx) {
cx.setSecurityController(new PolicySecurityController
());
try {
Scriptable scope = cx.initStandardObjects();
Reader r = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream
("defineHook.js"))
);
cx.evaluateReader(scope,r,"defineHook",
0,codeSource);
r.close();
Object hook = scope.get("hook",scope);
if(hook instanceof Function) {
Object s = ((Function)hook).call
(cx,scope,scope,new Object[] {3,2});
System.out.println("Got <" + s + ">");
} else {
System.err.println("hook is not a function");
}
} catch(FileNotFoundException ex) {
System.err.println("File not found");
} catch(IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
});
}
}
As defineHook.js, the following works as is appropriate:
function hook(a,b) {
return (a*b)+1;
}
The following also works, but it shouldn't; I want my program to
disallow the I/O operation as well as disallowing access to the
objects (java, java.lang, java.lang.System, ...) in the first place.
function hook(a,b) {
java.lang.System.out.println("I disobey!");
return (a*b)+1;
}
The idea of getting the PolicySecurityController involved was to
disable via policy access to certain functionality if the codebase was
"http://example.com/reader";. After futzing around with it for a while,
I found that any policy I wrote that allowed the file read also
allowed the pathological I/O access. Here's an example of what I've
been trying, but don't dwell on it because it's not even my idea of
correct:
// Where my classes live
grant codeBase "file:/home/dro/experiments/java/" {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};
// Where Rhino and a zillion other dist .jar files live
grant codeBase "file:/usr/share/java/*" {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};
I'd like to hear about how I should be going about this (as opposed to
how I *am* going about it) from someone more intimate with Rhino
security (or maybe Java security in general). Would someone do me the
honor?
Thanks
