Understanding MoreSecurity and MoreAuthSample


  • Subject: Understanding MoreSecurity and MoreAuthSample
  • From: "Duane Murphy" <email@hidden>

We have been doing an in depth study of MoreAuthSample and MoreSecurity.
We have what seem to be different and specialized needs for authenticated
tools, so we are trying to understand why the code is arranged the way it is.

In particular, the code goes to great lengths to have the executed tool
call AuthenticationExecuteWithPrivileges (AEWP). Is there some reason
that the application itself should _not_ be calling AEWP? Is there some
security problem that I am just missing?
