Security Exception Over Reading/writing Files On Medium Trust?
Nov 21, 2010
I'm working on a project in ASP.Net, and it requires reading/writing to files on my server. I'm hosted at GoDaddy, and they swear they've got me at Medium Trust. When I try to read or write files that are in my own domain, I get Security Exceptions. I've tried multiple ways of opening/saving the files and they all return security errors. Here's the most recent error and offending line of code (I didn't save them all, they're all pretty much the same thing):
Exception Details: System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.MediaPermission, WindowsBase, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' failed.
PngBitmapEncoder pbe = new PngBitmapEncoder();
pbe.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(new Uri("ornament.png", UriKind.Relative))); <-- Error
I've also gotten the error when trying to read/write using FileStream, Bitmap.Save and new Bitmap("ornament.png"). Could there be a problem with my Web.config? Is read/write supposed to be blocked by medium trust? This is a time-sensitive project and this is a brick wall for me. The deadline is end of business day tomorrow and GoDaddy isn't responding.

I have some inherited code which stores SMTP server, username, password in the system.net/mailSettings/smtp section of the Web.config.
It used to read them like so:
Configuration c = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(HttpContext.Current.Request.ApplicationPath);
MailSettingsSectionGroup settings = (MailSettingsSectionGroup)c.GetSectionGroup("system.net/mailSettings");
return settings.Smtp.Network.Host;
But this was failing when I had to deploy to a medium trust environment. So following the answer from this question, I rewrote it to use GetSection() like so:
SmtpSection settings = (SmtpSection)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("system.net/mailSettings/smtp"); return settings.Network.Host;
But it's still giving me a SecurityException on Medium trust, with the following message:

I have an unsigned custom assembly, that has been deployed to the bin folder of my website. Trying to access a page that explicitly serializes a list using LOSFormatter produces the following exception:
System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.

I contacted my Hosting provider, and this was the reply:
This error is coming because your DLL Imbibe.DNN is developed in Full trust. We don't support full trust on shared server. You need to re-compile it again under medium trust. Now, what I am not aware of any option for compiling an assembly for medium trust. Can anybody here please desrible, how do I compile an assembly specifically for medium trust? I added the AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers attribute to the assembly manifest, but it did not resolve the problem.

We just moved our site (still in development) to a new hosting company, on a medium trust shared environment. We setup the databases, aspnet_users tables etc, but now our page that handles new people signing up doesn't work. It contains a simple standard <asp:CreateUserWizard> control. However, this page is not working since the move (the rest of our pages are working). We get this compiler error:
Request for ConfigurationPermission failed while attempting to access configuration section 'system.web/machineKey'. To allow all callers to access the data for this section, set section attribute 'requirePermission' equal 'false' in the configuration file where this section is declared.
Apparently the hosting company is using the default medium trust .NET settings. We have no idea how to get around this since we've always developed on full trust dedicated server environments. Is it simply a fact that the <asp:CreateUserWizard> control does not work in medium trust, or is there a way?

I've developed a dot net website that runs fine on my localhost. When I upload it to my ISP on a shared hosted site, I receive the following: "Required permissions cannot be acquired." I've been informed that I need to change my website to medium trust. Can someone get me started in the right direction on how this is done? When I add <trust level="Medium" originUrl="" /> to the web.config it won't BUILD on my local host and when I add it to the web.config on the shared site, it gives me"This configuration section cannot be used at this path. This happens when the site administrator has locked access to this section using <location allowOverride="false"> from an inherited configuration file."

The website is on a shared hosting server with the trust levels set to medium.
I am sending an e-mail from the website (to confirm a booking) and need to attach a PDF doc (directions) with the mail.
The server is rejecting the mail because of the trust level.
My code line for the attachment is:
//mail.Attachments.Add(new System.Net.Mail.Attachment("c:/Domains/booking.proteafarm.co.za/images/DirectionsToProteaFarmMontagu.pdf"));

I have to host a wcf service in a medium trust environment.I want to know which bindings are supported while hosting WCF services in medium trust. There is a MSDN article
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb412171.aspx which talks about partial trust. I am not sure is it the same as medium trust.

Im running an ASP.NET MVC application hosted with Mosso, there are telling me that they cannot enable DTC because they run everything in medium trust.So when executing code that references: TransactionScope I get the following error. The transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8004D024)

what Medium Trust level is ?And what does it mean :
"More and more ASP.NET hosting providers are enforcing a Medium Trust Policy on their servers.Therefore it is important to make your website work (as much as possible) in environments where medium trust is enforced."

I am using GhostScript to generate some thumbnails of PDF pages in an ASP.NET application. I have it wrapped in this library called GhostScriptSharp that just uses DllImport to call methods in the GhostScript DLL.It looks like this wont work on a medium trust hosting environment, either because of the fact that it is calling unmanaged code, or that it looks like the library is creating files all over the place (outside my virtual directory). I ran Process Monitor and saw it trying to Read, QueryNameInformationFile, CreateFile and QueryStandardInformationFile in places like:
C:WINDOWSsystem32HalftoneDefault
or
C:gsgs8.63libHalftoneDefault
or
C:gsfontHalftoneDefault
Any ideas about whether this is "fixable" to run in medium trust? If I can't use GhostScript, is there another free/open source library that WILL work in Medium trust?

I am trying to get a simple prototype using ASP.NET S#arp-architecture (Sharp architecture) to run on a shared hosting site. This site runs in medium trust, which appears to give problems with this framework. At first I went off on a wild goose chase with the mySQL.data.dll, but the latest version already supports partially trusted callers. The only way I found up until now is this blogpost, which basically describes re-compiling everything from the ground up, starting with the various Castle components. Is this the only way to get this to work, and more importantly, does this actually work?
I have had some good experiences with S#arp-architecture, and since I only have a few days to build this prototype, I figured S#arp-architecture would be a good match. So, my options are to stick with SA, or on the other end of the spectrum to hand-roll an MVC/NH/mySQL application.

I'm following this document in order to run my website in a medium trust environment. My web app uses OleDb, so I need to give it permission in medium trust. I've done everything that is in that article and it's still not working In my web_mediumtrust.config I've added the following security class:
<SecurityClass Name="OleDbPermission" Description="System.Data.OleDb.OleDbPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" />
And the following permission set:
<PermissionSet class="NamedPermissionSet" version="1" Name="ASP.Net">
<IPermission class="OleDbPermission" version="1" Unrestricted="true" />
</PermissionSet> [code].....

Together with Ben (@BuildStarted), we've been building the RazorEngine project, which is designed to allow you compile and parse arbitrary templates outside of ASP.NET MVC. The project has had a couple of releases for a while now, and the feedback has been greatBut, we have encountered an issue: Medium trust.
Because we are using the CSharpCodeProvider to compile the Razor-generated classes (to load into the current AppDomain for execution), we encounter a SecurityException when trying to invoke it, due to the LinkDemand enforced on it. When a normal ASP.NET page is compiled (regardless of trust level), it does so through a BuildProvider which is normally GAC'd, and thus is implicity granted the appropriate permissions to compile. Hence ASP.NET WebForms works as standard in Medium trust.
Our code does not, and we need to target scenarios where our built library won't be deployed to the GAC and is running in Medium trust. So we considered building a BuildProvider specifically for it and defer compilation to the ASP.NET build system, but this seems overly complex and disjointed, and the provider itself requires both a mapping through a file extension, and a virtual path (which may or may not resolve to a physical file - think VirtualPathProvider). It all seems overkill, just to get the project working in Medium trust; not just that, but purely for ASP.NET projects as our engine also works outside of ASP.NETSo my question is this, does anyone know of any techniques or technologies for compiling C# code in a Medium trust environment?
