Requiring Multiple Roles In Web.config Authorization?
Apr 29, 2010
Is it possible to specify that multiple roles are required inside the authorization element of the web.config file? I currently have this block in one web.config of my site for a specific directory:
<authorization>
<allow roles="Global, Region" />
<deny users="*" />
</authorization>
I've just identified a special case where a person with two lower-level permissions than Global and Region should also have access to this directory. Roughly, I want something like this:
<authorization>
<allow roles="GlobalManager, RegionManager, SiteManager && FooSite" />
<deny users="*" />
</authorization>
I realize I probably should have a new role for this scenario, but I'd like to avoid that.

I am using ASP.NET MVC 3 and am trying to do something that should be really straight forward...
My application uses Forms authentication and that is working perfectly for controllers/actions. For example if I decorate either a controller or an action with the attribute below only members of the administrators group can view them:
[Authorize(Roles="Administrators")]
However I have a folder under the default Scripts folder called Admin. I only want members of the Administrators group to be able to access scripts within this directory so I created a new web.config in the directory with the following inside:
[code]....
However no matter whether a user is a member of the Administrators group or not they receive a 302 Found message and are then redirected to the login page.
If I change the web.config to allow user="*" then it works. It also works if I add an allow users="Username" for a specific user I am testing with.

I recently reinstalled Windows (on an SSD!) and I'm in the process of setting up IIS and all my web projects. One of my MVC project keeps asking for authentication on everything, including on resources like .css files and images. I'm using the default MVC template login with a custom provider that I'm using for dev purposes. I've tried rolling back my web.config to before I moved the project file and re-set IIS, but that didn't make much of a difference -- aside from changing authentication mode from Windows to Forms. Can you see anything wrong with my config?
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="~/Account/LogOn" timeout="2880" />
</authentication>
<membership defaultProvider="SuperSimpleMembershipProvider">
<providers>
<clear />
<add name="SuperSimpleMembershipProvider" type="Website.Helpers.SuperSimpleMembershipProvider" />
</providers>
</membership>
I don't have any <authorization> element or anything else related to login, since I'm doing everything via MVC. Update: Tried <authorization><allow users="*"/></authorization>, still not working.

I am "DomainMyDomainUserName" If I do this:
[Code]....
I can access the website I've created on my local machine in debug mode; and with my domain account as a local administrator, if I do this:
[Code]....
I can still access the website; and with my domain account in a Domain Group named "DomainDomainLocalSecurityGroup", if I do this:
[Code]....
I can still access the website; HOWEVER, if I create a Local Group on my machine named "LocalMachineGroup" and I add "DomainMyDomainUserName" to this group and I do this:
[Code]....
I get an Access Denied error trying to access the website. What I want to do is, have a group on my local machine (for testing), on a test web server, and on a production web server named "MyWebsiteUserAccess" with the same Domain Group (filled with Domain Users allowed access to the site) in all of these local groups; so that when I test the web application on my local machine, on my test web server and on my production web server, I don't have to change the Web.config file to have it work on each AND if the Domain Group name ever has to change, it won't affect access to the website.
What am I overlooking or is this even possible to do this way? I understand that there is a way to do Role Management through ASP.NET but I don't understand that well enough yet to implement that (and will probably go that route once I've done the research on how to best implement it for purpose of access control of this intranet site).

Is it possible to use multiple authorization elements in a single web.config to allow additional users access to one file?
E.g., I would like to allow User1 access to the whole application (including Page1.aspx), and User2 access to only Page1.aspx:

We're writing an app that has a requirement for allowing/disallowing access based on user role.In a traditional .net app of course you set the security trimming attribute in the web.config and set the nodes in the web.sitemap file and you were set.

I am building a subscription based web site, which currently has three subscription levels, i.e. Horses, Soccer, and Horses and Soccer. I was thinking of implementing standard role based authorization, where a Horses subscriber would get roles including those to use the Horses section, etc.
Should I use a standard role provider, and when a member subscribes to the site, assign roles for his subscription to him, or use a hierarchical role provider, that when asked for the roles for a member, only then uses the member's subscription level to 'calculate' a set of roles for the member.

I'm trying to use a custom Principal (with custom Identity) for security. This all works fine for logging in, out etc. I am now trying to limit access to unauthorised users within my code as follows:
[Code]....
Again, all is fine there. Except I need some more complicated rules, something along the lines of "Allow Admins. Allow Buyers, provided they have the correct department ID and are allowed to see this customer's credentials". All of that information exists within a database.

I have a client asp.net website that uses ASP.Net Membership, Roles and Profile providers and Login controls. I need to expand the application so was going to use WCF Workflows, the ASP.Net website will be hosted on a different server than the WCF Services so what I want to do is get the ASP.Net Website to auth via the WCF Service. So process will go:
ASP.Net Website ------------------> WCF Service ------------------> SQL Database (Membership, Roles, Profile, Workflow Persistence Data and Business Data)
I tried creating a custom Membership and Role providers but I have had problems managing the users (Membershipuser class) saying null when a vaild user has been return by the WCF Service as can access the properies but not the methods.

I have a problem using windows authentication and the authorization-tag in web.config for my asp.net application. When I host the application in IIS (both in IIS 6 and IIS 7) the authorization-tag is ignored. When I run the application in asp.net development server that comes with visual studio 2010, it works perfect.
Why will it not work in IIS? And how to solve it?

In my ASP.Net application I'm using URL routing.
The url format is somewhat like: [URL] To allow users to visit the login and recovery page, I've added the following entries to my web.config:

Is there a form of notation so that I can skip the en-GB part and replace it with a wildcard? I want the login and recovery page etc. to be available regardless of the culture.

I read on a post that you can use ASP.Net authorization in the web config to control access to a WCF web service to replace the following attribute:
[PrincipalPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Role="Administrators")]
To test I have been using "Administrators" which is a valid role so should allow me access and "TEST" which isnt. This works fine when using the above attribute however when I comment that out and use this in my Web.Config file:
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<allow roles=".TEST"/>
<deny roles="*"/>
</authorization>
It still allows me access.
So I was wondering if I have just got something wrong in the web.config or whether what I read was wrong saying to use that.
Just for reference this is the post I looked at:
Using Windows Role authentication in the App.config with WCF
and the following is my web.config:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<authorization>
<allow roles=".TEST"/>

I'm using a Custom Role Provider for authorization.
There are 2 roles: "VIEWER" and "SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR".
I have set up my role for my account as "VIEWER".
Roles.GetRolesForUser(this.User.Identity.Name) returns "VIEWER"
User.IsInRole("SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR") returns false
Web.Config contains below:
<location path="Administration">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow roles="SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR"/>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
However, I can still access the ~/Administration pages.
Even if I change the web.config to:
<location>
<system.web>
<authorization>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
I can still access any of the pages, but I shouldn't be able to access any page when this is set. Correct?
I'm pretty sure my Role Manager is working fine (see above calls to User and Roles), but here's the config:
<roleManager enabled="true" defaultProvider="MyRoleProvider" >
<providers>
<clear/>
<add type="MyNamespace.MyRoleProvider" name="MyRoleProvider"/>
</providers>
</roleManager>
I'm testing this on my local dev environment using Cassini and on a test web server running IIS 6. Both systems/sites work the same way and allow anyone access to any page. Both systems/sites also return correct data when programmatically checking Roles.GetRolesForUser and User.IsInRole.

Trivial question:
Noticed the following error whilst trawling the logs:
Authorization rule names cannot contain the '*' character
I have the code:
[Code]....
Does that mean I don't need to make and authorisation rules - I had used:
[Code]....
Now - is that completely redundant? Also, is * wrong syntactically?

Is it possible to have location authorization nodes in a web.config be external?
Such that I could take all of the nodes simlar to
[code]....
And move them outside of the web.config or something simlar? I find these nodes at an extreme amount of noise to a web.config when they're relatively static. Normally my approach would be to config source something like this but since it falls under the root node I'm not sure of it's possible with these nodes.

I don't have any sub catalogs for the .aspx files and this is my web.config file:

It's as if the Login.aspx won't grab the Site.Master if I add this authorization.
I get directed to the Login.aspx if I try to enter any other page, but without seeing the master page.
Is this enough info to solve this or do you need to know how the other pages looks like?

I am trying to secure an application in IIS7 using .NET Authorization Rules.
By default, the web server allows all users access (which is inherited).
I have added, just for this one application directory, a deny all users command, as well as an allow command for specific users.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="myusername" />
<deny users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>
I have Windows Authentication enabled, and I can verify that without the line that my REMOTE_USER is MYDOMAINmyusername.
However, when I try to deny all users, I am prompted with the typical Windows domain username/password box. If I enter the username password, the prompt comes back up again 3 times until finally presenting me with a failure message. (I have also tried to no avail)
Looking in the event viewer, it appears as if my login using the username and pw is successful in the audit ... and to further that point, my account is not being locked out (which it would if I were failing to login over and over). So it's as if I am logging in, but the configuration is not seeing what I entered as matching my login.
Below is the message I see (even when connecting from the server using localhost):
**Access is denied.
Description: An error occurred while accessing the resources required to serve this request. The server may not be configured for access to the requested URL.
Error message 401.2.: Unauthorized: Logon failed due to server configuration. Verify that you have permission to view this directory or page based on the credentials you supplied and the authentication methods enabled on the Web server. Contact the Web server's administrator for additional assistance.**
