I have certain pages in my application that are designed to be accessed only by redirect from other pages, and not directly(i.e they must get a query string from other page, otherwise there is an exception).
So I want to prevent users from accessing them by typing the URL, but I want them to be available by redirect.
I have a security issue in my web application where user can enter malicious data/can change the page path directory. To avoid these i want to restrict the user by accessing/typing in the URL.
View 5 RepliesIn one of my website I need to prevent direct access to non .aspx pages in a protected folder. Authentication works fine if I am going to [URL] but in one case my users are uploading html pages in that folder and if somebody cut and paste [URL]the page can be seen without the authentication process to be activated.
View 6 RepliesI have a ASP.NET page called admin.aspx that needs to be protected from direct access.
I want it to be accessed only when the user enter his name & password in another page called login.aspx I'm working in ASP.NET with Visual Basic .NET 2008,how to do it.
i have a website having a couple of pages,i'd like to allow all users to be able to browse some pages and deny them some web pages.I know it's something to do with creating an authorization tag and adding some allow or deny user,but i have no idea how to implement it.
View 4 RepliesI am using IIS7's URLRewrite feature to hide the .aspx extension in my ASP.NET WebForms application's URLs.
I'm using the following configuration:
[code]....
I can now browse to:
[URL]
and this is rewritten to:
[URL]
This preserves the "pretty" url in the browser address bar. I have also updated all my links on the site to use the extensionless URLs.
The problem is that the underlying .aspx pages can still be accessed directly and I'd like to prevent this.
If a user browses to [URL] I'd like it to either redirect/rewrite to [URL], or at the very least just return a "Page not found".
Update:
I managed to get this working by redirecting all .aspx pages to the home directory. This isn't ideal as I'd prefer to send them to the non-.aspx version, but it will do for now.
<rule name="Block .aspx" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".aspx" />
<action type="Redirect" url="/" />
</rule>`
How do I rewrite and redirect URLs that directly address .aspx pages to my friendly URL format?

I have an internal corporate ASP.NET MVC website.
Requirement(1): When any person is on the network, they can access this site EXCEPT one AD Group (Example: AD_Sales group).
Requirement(2): Also like for example if a person that has the access passes a url (Ex: http://mysite/Home/Index/Product/Letter) to a sales group person, he still should NOT access and need to display a custom message saying "You are not authorised to view this page".
If the scenario is like to issue the access to one AD Group and deny access for all others, it is fairly is. It can done from IIS. I am Wondering how to do this.

View 3 RepliesI have a folder called /Error in the root directory for an ASP.Net site. The site is completely public, so there is no authentication of users. Inside the Error folder, I have a file called errorlog.aspx, where I log unhandled exceptions. I don't want the public to be able to view this file. I created a web.config file inside the Error folder.
[Code]....
However, I'm still able to view errorlog.aspx by typing the URL into the browser. What am I missing?
I have a web app, which contains a folder Uploads, to which users (authenticated) upload their files (for some reason it has to be a folder in the root of the web app).I want to deny access to this folder and files to all non-authenticated users.
In my web.config I have:
[Code]....
and everything seems to work in development, but on a staging server it redirects non-authenticated users to login page ONLY from aspx pages, but not when entering the url to the file in Uploads folder.
Here is my dilema, on my site i have a WordPress Audio player (http://wpaudioplayer.com/standalone) that plays my mp3's.
It loads the Mp3's in by javascript...example below:
AudioPlayer.embed("audioplayer_7", { soundFile: "/Files/Music/[name of file].mp3" });
This file name is clearly visible in the browser source. Not a problem, however this means that any user can legitimately browse to the file directly and download it.
Now i still need the mp3 player (which is flash) to have access to the file but if a user was to try accessing the file directly, they would not be allowed access to it.
I am not sure how to go about this, i am circling the idea of a httphandler but not sure if this is sufficiant to stop the direct access to the file.
My web application need to list the network share information. The return code is '5' after I call NetShareEnum[Netapi32.dll] in windows integrated authentication.
I found that currently I am using Kerberos protocol to authenticate the access users and the token is grenerated with [TokenImpersonationLevel.Impersonation].
Who know how to resolve this problem? Is there any way to get a token with [TokenImpersonationLevel.Delegation] in Kerberos? BTW, I am sure about that the access user has the Access privilege to list the network share in target server.
Im using an aspx page as the srcl for an image in the host page to serve a dynamically generated image to the user based on parameters they supply
ie

Id like for people only to access the content via default.aspx and not the dynamically generated content generateimage.aspx. Any attempt to browse here directly should be redirected to an error page

How can I deny access to particular directory in IIS. In Apache I could just add .htaccess file:
Order allow,deny Deny from all
to Logs or cache directory and nobody will allowed to see any content in that directory.
However when I add Web.config:

it works only for files handled by asp and doesn't work for i.e. log.txt.
I don't have access to IIS server, I can only add and change files.
I have a problem with ASP.NET web configuration file. I want to deny some users or roles to accessing a specific PDF file. I am using ASP.NET membership and role management system. So I added this lines of codes to a Web.config file:
<location path="myfile.pdf">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow roles="admin"/>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
and put it to the directory witch the file is included in it. Now when I run the project in local system I can not access the PDF file wile I login with "admin" role. But when I publish the project on the web server I can not brows the folder but I can view the PDF file when I browse complete path to the PDF file. So:
I can not access : [URL]
but I can view : [URL]

View 3 RepliesI have a web application that has a configuration folder that houses multiple XML files that are configuration settings for multiple "portals" as you will. I need IIS to have access to them so the "portal" loads (sql connection strings, master page paths) but I want to deny any outside access (url browsing). Here's an example below:

I need to restrict access to this file if you're browsing to it but still allow the system access to it so it can parse the "portal" that it's loading.

The way I have above, no one can access this folder, mySub, except Administrators, Editors, and Members. However, here's what I want. I want to allow all and any user to the default.aspx page of this mySub folder and denied any other pages if they're not Administrators, Editors, and Members. One last thing, also denied access to addWord.aspx if they're not Administrators and Editors. I know I can list all the pages and give them various permission but I do not want to list all the pages. What's the best and easist way to accomplish this?
I have a website developed in ASP.NET created by someone else, sitting on another server... until now... a simple(ish) setup with login to update content. The site was zipped up and I was told it would be a simple case of uploading all the files onto the new server. I've managed to upload the site and it works fine... but I can't access the editing pages as it will no longer accept the username and password when I go to login. The host server is running ASP.NET v4 and IIS v7. Hosting is with [URL] so I'm also getting used to their way of doing things.
View 1 RepliesI only want my web images to be visibleSimpliied, a digital media page pulls html content from a database using SQL security and renders that HTML. That digital media page is secured in that only a returing Paypal transaction user with a matching transaction can access it. But today that HTML content makes references to images on my site, those images can be freely directly over the web.The backend is asp.net 2.0. Would it be possible for me to secure the web folder with my images to some generic user and impersonate access from my pages so that attempts to access images directly fails?f not, any way to solve all that html content on serverside somehow and turn it into something else I can secure?
