| Error description
.
Failing on security when doing requestdispatch.forward() to a
protected servlet (and now failing) from the "baseLogon" servet
that calls SSOAuthenticator. After calling SSOAuthenticator,
the request thread should have a security context established
and should not fail on the requestdispatch.forward() call. Local fix
Test efix PMR81595-356-test-0829 fixed the customer's problem.
Need official efix. Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Application Server users who *
* have enabled security. *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Users may not be properly challenged *
* while accessing secured resources. *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: *
****************************************************************
Authenticated user may get challenged again, or
unauthenticated user may not be challenged as authentication
was not properly flaged. This scenario is only likely to
occur if a servlet forwards or dispatches to another
secured servlet. Problem conclusion
The flag used to determine authentication was not used
correctly. The flag has now been removed as it is
redundant. Temporary fix
test eFix has been send to customer Comments
