Web.config - Wildcards In Location And Authorization?

Dec 7, 2010

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.

C# - Is It Possible To Have Location Authorization Nodes In A Web.config Be External

Sep 20, 2010

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.

Configuration :: Setting Authorization For Images Folder Using Location Tag In Web.config Is Not Working?

Oct 28, 2010

I implemented the Location tag in the web.config file to authorize the anonymous users for Images folder. I deployed the code in IIS6.0 with Forms authentication mode enabled for the virtual directory. I disabled all other authentication modes. When I browse the login page, Images are not displaying. When I set Anonymous authentication in IIS6.0 for the Image folder, it works fine.

See below the code implemented in web.config:

Security :: Web.Config Authorization Not Working At All?

Sep 30, 2010

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.

Security :: Master Page Won't Load When Using Authorization In Web.config?

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?

Roles Authentication Works Using Authorization Attribute But Not Via Authorization In Web.config?

Mar 29, 2011

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.

Security :: How To Make MVC View Insecure Via Location Tag In Web.Config

Oct 10, 2010

I have the following authorization settings in my web.config:

[Code]....

This deny's all anonymous access to the application accept the login page. In addition to this I am using authorization within each controller action via a custom authorize attribute.

I have one additional action that I would like to expose publicly in addition to the login page. This action does not have the authorize attribute on it. I have tried to make this view (resetPassword view) public by using the location tag in the web.config file like so:

[Code]....

In the path attribute above I have tried both the view as well as the action path, but it doesnt allow public access to the action.

I have even tried to put this view in a separate folder within the shared folder and put a separate web.config file to make that folder public like so:

[Code]....

None of the above configuration allow me to make this particular action (view) public. Can anyone suggest any other solutions, or what I may be doing wrong in this case?

Security :: Web.config Authorization Roles With Local Groups With Domain Groups In Them

Sep 29, 2010

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).

Non Physical Location Authorization In IIS6?

Aug 30, 2010

I'm running an Asp.NET MVC 2 app under IIS 6.All pages are behind Windows Integrated Authentication except for some pages that accepts anonymous access.We setup these pages in the web.config with the location element like this

<location path="MyPath/ToThePage">
<system.web>
<authorization>

[code]...

this is an Asp.NET MVC app, the path indicated in the path attribute points to an action method not a physical location.When this was running under IIS 7 integrated mode it was working fine. But when we switched to IIS 6 we get the login prompt even with the pages that are set to accept anonymous users.ow to make IIS 6 authorize anonymous access to non physical paths ?

.net - Cannot Set Authorization Rules In Web.config For WCF Service

Feb 9, 2011

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:

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.

IIS7 Authorization Rules / Config - Prompting Perpetually

Dec 8, 2010

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.**
