Christoph Lenggenhager updated WW-4257:
---------------------------------------

    Attachment: ww-4257.patch

Hmm, I studied WW-4083 again. It seems to me that WW-4154 made this obsolete. 
It is no longer possible that the parameter interceptor accepts a parameter 
solely based on the {{ParameterNameAware}} interface. Therefore, the problem 
that the interceptor accepts the parameter, but {{SecurityMemberAccess}} 
rejects it, does no longer exist.
I would therefore rather suggest to remove the {{PropertiesJudge}} again and 
only rely on the statically configured property checks in 
{{SecurityMemberAccess}}.
Patch for that is attached.

> With version 2.3.16, the {{ParametersInterceptor}} uses the same method to 
> validate parameter names and property names.
> As we use the {{ParameterNameAware}} interface to implement parameter 
> whitelisting on action level, this breaks our case.
> It might not be how it is intended, but validating a property independent of 
> the actual bean breaks our current implementation.
> Possible fixes would be:
> - alter {{ParameterNameAware}} to have an additional separate method to 
> validate properties
> - introduce a new {{PropertyNameAware}} interface
> - introduce a new {{ParameterAndPropertyNameAware}} interface
> One could also consider to ignore the {{ParameterNameAware}} interface when 
> validating properties, as for a parameter {{foo.bar}}, the values 
> {{foo.bar}}, {{foo}}, and {{bar}} are passed to the ParameterNameAware 
> interface, which one could see as a bit redundant. Especially given the fact 
> that a context in the case of property validation is not provided. Therefore, 
> it is impossible for the implementation to distinguish between a parameter 
> and a property.
