Jasper Rosenberg updated WW-4172:
---------------------------------
Description: deleting (was: Let's say you have the following mappings:
{code:xml}
<package name="securityTest" namespace="/securitytest" extends="default">
<action name="secureAction">
<result>secure.ftl</result>
</action>
<action name="insecureAction">
<result>insecure.ftl</result>
</action>
</package>
{code}
Then suppose you are using url pattern based security such as with Spring
Security, and require login to view secureAction.action:
{code:xml}
<http use-expressions="true">
<intercept-url pattern="/securitytest/insecureAction.action"
access="permitAll"/>
<intercept-url pattern="/securitytest/secureAction.action"
access="isAuthenticated"/>
<form-login />
</http>
{code}
Now:
1. http://localhost/securitytest/insecureAction.action
Shows the insecure content
2. http://localhost/securitytest/secureAction.action
Requires login before displaying secure content
3. http://localhost/securitytest/insecureAction.action?action:secureAction
Whoops, there's the secure content without login!
I believe this is only a problem if you are hosting the secure and insecure
actions in the same namespace.
Obviously, this is not directly a Struts2 issue, but I'm sure that many sites
are using url based security and Struts2 together. At the very least, it might
be good to provide an easy way to disable support for the "action:" parameter
prefix. For now I just extended the DefaultActionMapper, and overwrote the
value of prefixTrie to be empty.

Environment: deleting (was: Spring Security)
Labels: (was: security)
Summary: deleteing (was: "action:" parameter prefix can be used to
access url secured content)
