Giving and receiving authorization and
permission
04/09/2004 04:02 PM

We've been exploring the key concepts of identity management as promulgated by the Open Group in a recent white paper (link below). Today our topic is authorization and permission management.

How to Stop Receiving Credit Card Offers


How to Stop Receiving Credit Card Offers 03/06/2004 01:55 AM
Tired of annoying "pre-approved" credit card offers? I sure am. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) of 1970 as amended in 1996, the four major credit bureaus have the right to sell your information to companies that want to offer you a credit card. Fortunately, the amendment also stipulated that credit bureaus must provide a way for consumers to have their names excluded from pre-approval lists. If you're a United States citizen sick of getting pre-screened credit card offers, this article will show you how to avoid receiving them.

Fascinating article by Seymour "Next Pulitzer a-Comin'" Hersh in this week's New Yorker. It alleges that the abuses at Abu Ghraib happened because a "special-access program" established by Rumsfeld to authorize quick-response kill/capture/interrogate operations took hold there. Hersh does not allege that Rumsfeld knew of or authorized the particular abuses, only that his program of secret, rough interrogation enabled them. But it's a far more nuanced article than I'm letting on. And, of course, it's well-told....

TiVo Gets Permission To Innovate


TiVo Gets Permission To Innovate 08/04/2004 01:33 PM
While it's good news that the FCC has given TiVo permission to offer their TiVoToGo service it still raises serious questions about why any company should need to ask for permission to offer an innovative service? It sets a bad precedent for the entire industry.

Why Does TiVo Need Permission To
Innovate?
08/02/2004 04:42 AM
A couple weeks ago, we had the story of the MPAA and the NFL trying to force TiVo to stop its plans to add new features to their devices that would let a user send a recorded program to another device. While we discussed why this was a ridiculous move by both the MPAA and the NFL, a reporter at the Washington Post is now going one step further and pointing out that the real travesty is the fact that TiVo suddenly needs to ask permission from the government to innovate. The ability of companies to continually innovate and reinvent markets based on free and open competition is what helps drive this economy. When companies need to ask permission to add innovative features, and that permission needs to go through other companies, we're destroying our ability to innovate competitively. Instead, companies outside of this country will build new systems with features that consumers actually want, while systems here are held back by regulations that serve no other purpose than to protect an adjacent industry that refuses to change with the times. It's the worst form of protectionism -- since no one will even admit that it's protectionism. And, like all attempts at protectionism, the end result will be much worse for those these rules supposedly protect.

how to implement a permission system in
a CMS ?
01/22/2003 06:39 PM
I'm currently coding (yet another) content management system with PHP/MySQL. As any modern CMS, mine got users. Now I need to implement the 'permissions' system. Basically it's a flag recorded in the database, allowing or not user 'x' to do action 'y' on the website. I can see every 'piece of information' in a CMS as an 'element'. That is, blogs of course, links, files, users, all is recorded in the same table with a 'type' attribute describing element type and allowing code to fetch and display correctly the element content.

Why new US passports can be read without
permission


Why new US passports can be read without
permission
04/14/2005 12:47 PM
Cory Doctorow: Yesterday at the Computers, Freedom and Privacy conference in Seattle, Ed Felten cornered a State Department Fed who was there to advocate for passports enabled with RFID chips that will make it possible to track Americans as they wander the streets of foreign cities, and for terrorists and crooks to target American citizens by detecting the signature radio-pulses their passports give off. Ed asked the Fed why the US needed remotely readable passports, instead of passports with smart-cards or other "contact-read" technologies in them? The Fed's responses are hilariously lame:
In the Q&A session, I asked Mr. Moss directly why the decision was made to use a remotely readable chip rather than one that can only be read by physical contact. Technically, this decision is nearly indefensible, unless one wants to be able to read passports without notifying their owners -- which, officially at least, is not a goal of the U.S. government's program. Mr. Moss gave a pretty weak answer, which amounted to an assertion that it would have been too difficult to agree on a standard for contact-based reading of passports. This wasn't very convincing, since the smart-card standard could be applied to passports nearly as-is -- the only change necessary would be to specify exactly where on the passport the smart-card contacts would be. The standardization and security problems associated with contactless cards seem to be much more serious.

After the panel, I discussed this issue with Kenn Cukier of The Economist, who has followed the development of this technology for a while and has a good perspective on how we reached the current state. It seems that the decision to use contactless technology was made without fully understanding its consequences, relying on technical assurances from people who had products to sell. Now that the problems with that decision have become obvious, it's late in the process and would be expensive and embarrassing to back out. In short, this looks like another flawed technology procurement program.

Linux VServer procfs Permission Weakness


Linux VServer procfs Permission Weakness 07/07/2004 04:44 AM
“Veit Wahlich has reported a weakness in Linux VServer, which can be exploited by certain malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or gain knowledge of sensitive information. The vulnerability is caused due to weak permissions on procfs, which allows a privileged user on a virtual server to manipulate the permissions on “/proc” for all virtual servers or gain knowledge of information related to other virtual servers….Solution: Update to version 1.28.”

SCO using Samba source code: permission
granted or not?
12/07/2003 10:29 AM
I've never told anyone about this before. In 1997, I collaborated for a few weeks with one of the developers of VisionFS on decoding the NT Domain protocols. Both VisionFS and Samba are windows-compatible file, print and login servers.

The issue is that whilst our cooperation accelerated the understanding of NT Domains, SCO's developer sent me some of his code, and the implicit understanding was that he would be able to copy mine.

However, no such agreements were actually in place...

Many sites need to be able to announce new content to their registered users. Wouldn't it be good if they did so only when the users have given them permission to do so and the content was genuinely of interest to each recipient? Here's a system for doing just that, using the Plone/Zope CMS.
