David Jencks commented on GERONIMO-677: --------------------------------------- I'm not very clear on how sessions work, but I don't think invalidating a session logs you out. Please let me know if I am wrong. To analyze the Subject contents we would need to know your security configuration: both the login configuration and user >> principal assignments and your application security configuration with the principal >> role mapping. It looks to me as if you might have the user "user" assigned to the groups "user" and "manager". > Repeated login (after session invalidation) with different credentials > results in incorrect role set. > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GERONIMO-677 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-677 > Project: Geronimo > Type: Bug > Components: security > Versions: 1.0-M4 > Reporter: Ivan Dubrov > Priority: Critical > > Consider we have two users, "user" with role "user" and "manager" with role > "manager" and two secured areas /user/* and /manager/*, so only "user"'s can > access pages with URL /user/* and only "manager"'s can access pages with URL > /manager/*. > If we log in as "user", we can access only /user/* pages, "403 Forbidden" if > we try to access /manager/* pages. It is OK. > Now, if we clean the session (request.getSession().invalidate()), we will be > logged out, so we cannot access nor /user/*, nor /manager/* pages - server > redirects to the login page. It is OK. > But if we login second time, as a "manager", we can access both page sets - > /user/* and /manager/*! It means that authenticated user owns both roles > "user" and "manager", but this is impossible combination! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
