Security :: Authorization Section - Web.config Denying All Users
Jan 1, 2011
In my web.config file, I have an authorization section that is supposed to deny all users EXCEPT for those included in the group specified. However, my login form doesn't allow these users to proceed to the next page - the login form just reappears as if the user has been denied. Code:
[Code]....
I have a user named 'test' that is in the Student Council group. I've tried 'allow users' and 'allow roles' with no success. I've also confirmed that the user is able to log into any workstation in my domain.

Denying all users to a page?

I'm refering to this question
[URL]
Since I already know how to add and delete the roles, now my question is how can I view the allowed and denied roles.

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?

I am wondering how to encrypt the below information in the "web.config" file of the "Account" folder (where we have the secured pages):
[Code]....
My issue here is that even after I compiled my application (using "aspnet_compiler -v /reports c:
eports"), the information inside the web.config file of the Account folder still not encrypted, and I want to publish my site to the customer server. So, since this server is a customer server, then they can access this "web.config" file and change our web-application security behaviour (correct me if I am wrong). Basically, I don't want the customer to even have access to our secured pages when they access our web-application using the web browser. How to solve this issue?

look at the attached web.config? The last part doesn't seem to work although the path is correct. I've tried logging on the site with a use which is in no groups, but it can still access the page...

I don't have any sub catalogs for the .aspx files and this is my web.config file:
[Code]....
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 have a few pages that need to use SSL and I am confused bc I read you should set the forms authentication section in the web.config to use SSL. so if this is the case, the user logs in (login page is using ssl) the forms auth cookie is created and now if i redirect to the non ssl enable home page, does this mean the auth cookie will not be transmitted, so i can't display like a welcome module or know the username of the user who logged in?

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 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).

I've an application that runs in a localhost.
So I can get the user logon to some recording data or some thing else.
I was thinking if that was possible to put some value in web config that gets the user logon and if that logon is authorizated for that page it let him open else it close the page...
Some one have some idea to accomplish it ?

I am not able to allow/deny users based on roles in the web.config (using <location path>). The following does not work even if the user is in the 'Admin' role:[Code]....
I am able successfully execute IsUserInRole() and GetRolesForUser() in the codebehind and get expected results. The same applies to the web.sitemap, adding roles in there do not seem to apply to the user even if he is a member of the role.
Here is my web.config (trimmed some sections out so it's not too long):[Code]....
And web.sitemap:

Our team has recently implemented a role permission based authorization so that we can have granular control. This is similar to what Rockford Lhotka suggests herehttp://www.lhotka.net/weblog/PermissionbasedAuthorizationVsRolebasedAuthorization.aspx I have also read about the Claims based authorization which to me looks very similar to what we have. Can some one put in simple terms what the advantages of claims based authorization are.

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:

I would like to add this section to my machine.config in exactly the same way many articles and microsoft are suggesting:
<configuration>
<system.net>
<connectionManagement>
<add name = [URL]/>
<add name = "*" maxconnection = "2" />
</connectionManagement>
</system.net>
</configuration>
[URL] As soon as I do it though, I get this exception when trying to hit a page hosted on the IIS on the same machine: Parser Error Message: Unrecognized configuration section system.net. Source Error:
Line 9: settings that differ from their defaults.
Line 10: --><configuration>
Line 11: <system.net>
Line 12: <connectionManagement>
Line 13: <add address="*" maxconnection="24" />
Source File: C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFramework64v2.0.50727Configmachine.config Line: 11 Where is the problem and how can I modify the machine.config so that I can finally control the maxconnection value?
