version 4.2.0.2 security problem for user roles

Hi Joe,

I am now upgading to version 4.2.0.2. all sites under my administration, running fulltrust sql2012 aspnet4

I have a security problem:

  • I defined a new role as xx_edit
  • I put one user to this role
  • I set in security permission in a shared file module (but also in a html module) that the role has modify permission
  • Loggin in with this user let him now see not only the "pencil" to modify content, but even the "key" to modify settings (but fortunatly not the secuity one)

Before (until 3.9.9.8) the user could only see the "pencil", and this worked fine !!!

Can you notice it ?

best regards,

Michele from Rome

Re: version 4.2.0.2 security problem for user roles

Administration > Permissions > Roles NOT Allowed To Edit Feature Instance Settings

if you check the role there then the user will not be able to change settings on the content where he can edit

Hope that helps,

Joe
