User without appropriate privileges / authorizations can activate LDAP connection via the System Overview in Java GUI
Error Message :
N/A
There are two users. In the test case JAC/SBB01 and TEST1/SBB01. User JAC/SBB01 has LDAP connection enabled and is not allowed to edit TEST1/SBB01 (in the test scenario he is not allowed to edit any USER object with name TEST1/SBB01):
<Please see attached file for image>
Log in as JAC/SBB01 and open TEST1/SBB01:
<Please see attached file for image>
As can be seen, it is read only (Save-Button is greyed out) and LDAP connection is not checked for TEST1/SBB01.
Now open the System Overview and right click on TEST1/SBB01, select Activate LDAP connection:
<Please see attached file for image>
Now open TEST1/SBB01 again. LDAP connection is now checked:
<Please see attached file for image>
I.e. even though JAC/SBB01 is not allowed to edit TEST1/SBB01, it was possible to modify it via Activate LDAP connection in the System Overview.
Cause type:
Defect
Root Cause: The LDAP setting of users can be activated/deactivated via the context menu without write authorization.
