Subject: acls: restrict less-privileged ACL modifications
X-Git-Url: https://git.proxmox.com/?p=pve-access-control.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=46bfd59dfca655b263d1f905be37d985416717ac

acls: restrict less-privileged ACL modifications

there are currently three possibilities to modify ACLs without the
'Permissions.Modify' privilege in PVE::RPCEnvironment::check_perm_modify:

    if ($path =~ m|^/storage/.+$|) {
	push @$testperms, 'Datastore.Allocate';
    } elsif ($path =~ m|^/vms/.+$|) {
	push @$testperms, 'VM.Allocate';
    } elsif ($path =~ m|^/pool/.+$|) {
	push @$testperms, 'Pool.Allocate';
    }

lock those down by only allowing the currently authenticated user to hand out a
subset of their own privileges, never more.

for example, this still allows a PVEVMAdmin to create ACLs for other
users/tokens with PVEVMUser (on '/vm/XXX'), but not with Administrator or
PVEPermAdmin.
