i am using spring security 3 with JSF 2 ICEFaces 2 and i configured

  • 0

i am using spring security 3 with JSF 2 ICEFaces 2
and i configured my application as follows:

  1. All the pages are protected (requires authentication) except for login.

  2. Login page is non filtered, so any user can access it.

the problem: when trying to run app, user is redirected to home page, but he’s not logged in so he’s redirected to login page, page loads fine, and i am using spring security in debug mode, so i can see the access denied exception.

here’s my code:

    You have to define that the login Page itself is accessible without login.

    <security:intercept-url pattern="/faces/login.xhtml" access="permitAll" />
    

    And put this line before the “catch all” line:

    <intercept-url pattern="/faces/**" access="isAuthenticated()" />
    

    The reference document says urls are matched in the same order as declared!


    Difference between access and filter attribute — You need to knwo that spring security have a complete filter chain, and the accessDesisionFilter is only one of them. (This complete filter chain in initiated by <security:http auto="true">

    Using filters=”none” operates by creating an empty filter chain in Spring Security’s FilterChainProxy, whereas the access attributes are used to configure the FilterSecurityInterceptor in the single filter chain which is created by the namespace configuration. The two are applied independently, so if you have an access contraint for a sub-pattern of a pattern which has a filters=”none” attribute, the access constraint will be ignored, even if it is listed first. It isn’t possible to apply a filters=”none” attribute to the pattern /** since this is used by the namespace filter chain. In version 3.1 things are more flexible. You can define multiple filter chains and the filters attribute is no longer supported.
