Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All users of WebSphere Application Server   *
*                  V7.0 for z/OS                               *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Authorization errors were occurring     *
*                      because the EJBROLE class               *
*                      was not RACLISTed.                      *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
When performing a native authorization check that required the
EJBROLE class to be RACLISTed, the code was not attempting to
RACLIST this class after finding out that it was not in RACLIST.

Problem conclusion

The code was updated to attempt to RACLIST the class if the
authorization request fails because the class is not RACLISTed.

APAR PK78757 is currently targeted for inclusion in
Service Level (Fix Pack) 7.0.0.3 of WebSphere
Application Server for z/OS.
