Error description
In a multiple security domain, when application does datasoure lookup during application startup, J2C components thread identity related initializations can be incorrect such that thread identity may not be used for authentication
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V7.0, V8.0 and V8.5 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Datasource lookup during application * * startup not setting thread identity * * correctly in a multiple security * * domain environment * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** To support thread identity on z/OS, websphere j2c component needs to create appropriate security helper class during initialization where it reads the required properties from the security configuration. WebSphere V7.0 provided the support for the multiple security domains, using which it is possible to create a separate security domain for the applications. In such environments the admin security domain will be in effect till the applications are started and once the applications are started the application security domain will be in effect. In a multiple security domain environment if the application attempts to lookup the datasource during the applications startup process (e.g startup beans) the j2c component initializes the security helper class by reading the security properties from the security.xml relavant to the admin security domain that is in effect at that point. This is not correct because when an application security domain exists the security properties should be read from the relavant application security domain (ie domain-security.xml) for all application requests.
Problem conclusion
WebSphere j2c component has been updated to read the security properties from the appropriaate domain in a multiple security domain environment. APAR PM64516 is currently targeted for inclusion in WebSphere Application Server Fix Packs 7.0.0.27, 8.0.0.5, and 8.5.0.1.
