问题


From what i have read from this paper I understand that a role based access control system is one where users can be assigned to roles where roles specify permissions to perform operations on objects But in asp.net we do not specify "Operations on objects", what i mean here is that how can we specify "All users in Role R can perform a delete on object O" Where is the Object Part in ASP.Net

The security model is asp.net is pretty limited. In essence you only have control at the Role level. Which means that for any operation you have to test to see if the user is any of the roles that you want to allow that operation to be performed.

We took the path of defining our own model that gives much more granularity. Basically we define operations and assign those operations to various roles. This way we can test if they have a "delete account" right versus testing if they are in "Admin", "Account Admin", or any number of other roles. It's very similar to how Active Directory works. Further it allows us to reconfigure roles as needed.

There is a piece called Authorization Manager (AzMan) that ships with windows. It can work with your membership provider to provide operation level control. Some people have had success with it, but others have complained that it's difficult to get working. We used it about 5 years ago on a project and at that time it worked about 95% of the time. The other 5% it had communications issues with our AD controller.

Which leads us to your question: Is the built in ASP.Net membership provider a true role based access control system? No. It allows you to define Roles, not operations.

Check out rhino security if you need something more fine grained.

As suggested in previous posting, to achieve more granularity you would need to build up on the existing ASP.net membership and role providers. There are third party controls such as http://www.visualaccesscontrol.com that provide role based Module Access Security and Data Access Security as well. With Visual Access Controls you can add administrative functionalities to your ASP.net web application to dynamically restrict the users to the activities they are allowed to perform and the subset of data they are allowed to see based on their respective roles.

You are implementing the delete operation, so it is up to you to check if the logged in user has permission to delete the object. For example, you might create a role "CanDeleteOs". Then, your code would look like this:

if ( !Roles.IsUserInRole("CanDeleteOs") )
    throw new Exception("User does not have permission to delete O's.");
