Mostly, it confuses people as they may have had their session time
out, do a
search and get no results on a normal looking search results page.
Is there something I should be configuring better?? Or is it a bug?
It appears to be a bug. For some reason, to access Search.jsp you
don't need any permissions - all that is checked is a generic
permission to read "os.name" system property.
Andrew? I think this should be filed as a security bug. I also fear
that the DummyPermission is used elsewhere as well. In the very
least, we should check for something generic, like view permission to
the front page.
