> Key: SYNCOPE-418
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-418
> Project: Syncope
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 1.1.3
> Reporter: Francesco Chicchiriccò
> Assignee: Francesco Chicchiriccò
> Fix For: 1.1.4, 1.2.0
>
>
> Some entities have String keys that are currently accepted without any
> specific bound (schema, resources, config parameters).
> When, for example, a value like as an URL is provided, nothing special
> happens during creation (because such value is embedded into a transfer
> object); however, any subsequent read or delete, which would require passing
> the entity key as part of the REST URL, will fail either with Spring MVC and
> CXF.
> For example, as reported in mailing list [1], a user schema with name
> 'http://schemas.examples.org/security/authorization/organizationUnit' can be
> created but will then be impossible to read or even delete since the REST URL
> would be something like as
> http://localhost:9080syncope/rest/schema/USER/read/http://schemas.examples.org/security/authorization/organizationUnit
> After some search, it seems that it is neither Spring MVC nor CXF problem,
> but instead the JEE container (like as Tomcat, for example) that needs some
> special configuration for handling such URLs (see CXF-4207 for more details).
> The most logical and straightforward solution seems to be just setting some
> limits for the characters admitted; at a first glance, alphanumeric plus some
> special characters (space, _, -, @, .) should be fine.
