public final class ServicePermission extends Permission implements Serializable
This class is used to protect Kerberos services and the credentials necessary to access those services. There is a one to one mapping of a service principal and the credentials necessary to access the service. Therefore granting access to a service principal implicitly grants access to the credential necessary to establish a security context with the service principal. This applies regardless of whether the credentials are in a cache or acquired via an exchange with the KDC. The credential can be either a ticket granting ticket, a service ticket or a secret key from a key table.
A ServicePermission contains a service principal name and a list of actions which specify the context the credential can be used within.
The service principal name is the canonical name of the KerberosPrincipal
supplying the service, that is the KerberosPrincipal represents a Kerberos service principal. This name is treated in a case sensitive manner. An asterisk may appear by itself, to signify any service principal.
Granting this permission implies that the caller can use a cached credential (TGT, service ticket or secret key) within the context designated by the action. In the case of the TGT, granting this permission also implies that the TGT can be obtained by an Authentication Service exchange.
The possible actions are:
initiate - allow the caller to use the credential to initiate a security context with a service principal. accept - allow the caller to use the credential to accept security context as a particular principal.For example, to specify the permission to access to the TGT to initiate a security context the permission is constructed as follows:
ServicePermission("krbtgt/[email protected]", "initiate");
To obtain a service ticket to initiate a context with the "host" service the permission is constructed as follows:
ServicePermission("host/[email protected]", "initiate");
For a Kerberized server the action is "accept". For example, the permission necessary to access and use the secret key of the Kerberized "host" service (telnet and the likes) would be constructed as follows:
ServicePermission("host/[email protected]", "accept");
public ServicePermission(String servicePrincipal, String action)
Create a new ServicePermission
with the specified servicePrincipal
and action
.
servicePrincipal
- the name of the service principal. An asterisk may appear by itself, to signify any service principal.
action
- the action stringpublic boolean implies(Permission p)
Checks if this Kerberos service permission object "implies" the specified permission.
If none of the above are true, implies
returns false.
implies
in class Permission
p
- the permission to check against.public boolean equals(Object obj)
Checks two ServicePermission objects for equality.
equals
in class Permission
obj
- the object to test for equality with this object.Object.hashCode()
, HashMap
public int hashCode()
Returns the hash code value for this object.
hashCode
in class Permission
Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
, System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)
public String getActions()
Returns the canonical string representation of the actions. Always returns present actions in the following order: initiate, accept.
getActions
in class Permission
public PermissionCollection newPermissionCollection()
Returns a PermissionCollection object for storing ServicePermission objects.
ServicePermission objects must be stored in a manner that allows them to be inserted into the collection in any order, but that also enables the PermissionCollection implies method to be implemented in an efficient (and consistent) manner.
