C# - Using Evidence, Security Policy And Permissions To Prevent Assembly From Loading On Web Server?

Mar 11, 2010

Assume a .NET class library code that, for example, writes to the Windows registry. Then this code has problem to run over internet, because default Internet policy does not give access to write to the registry.By adding a RequestMinimum statement in the assembly we can specify that the code requires permission to write to write to the registry. This will not alter the fact that the code does not have the permission, but will stop the assembly from loading; the runtime will throw a System.Security.Policy.PolicyException and identify the permission that is required.Do you now any other examples of using evidence, security policy and permissions (the key elements of code-access security) to prevent an assembly from loading on a web server?

Where Is Code Access Security Policy Configured

Jul 14, 2008

I recently did a clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium and a reinstall of Visual Studio Professional 2008. I can't find the Framework Configuration anywhere. I have looked on the Start Menu and in the Control Panel and in Administrative tools. I need to find it so I can fully trust the network where my projects are located.

C# - Loading An Assembly Using Assembly.LoadFrom() As The Assemblies Are Located In A Different Path?

Apr 2, 2012

I am loading an Assembly using Assembly.LoadFrom() as the assemblies are located in a different path from Application Base directory.

Dim oAssembly As Assembly = _
Assembly.LoadFrom("C:\MyFolder\" + ddlXlate.SelectedItem.ToString() + ".dll")

And I consume a Type from that assembly without any problem:

oXML = CType(oAssembly.CreateInstance(sBaseType + ".XlateContainer"), _
XlateBase.XlateContainer)

However, the problem occurs when I try to use a Type from this assembly from within another method like the one below:

oComboBox.DataSource = _
[Enum].GetValues(Type.GetType(sType + "+ItemEnum," + sAssemblyName))

sAssemblyName is the one I loaded using LoadFrom() actually. After it said it cannot find the assembly, I used AssemblyResolve event which solved my problem :Subscribing AssemblyResolve event :

AddHandler AppDomain.CurrentDomain.AssemblyResolve, _
AddressOf MyResolveEventHandler

Event Handler Method:

Private Shared Function MyResolveEventHandler(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal args As ResolveEventArgs) As Assembly
Return Assembly.LoadFrom("C:\PSIOBJ\" + args.Name + ".dll")
End Function

And I thought maybe the error occurs because it cannot find a dependent assembly defined in assembly manifest file I loaded using LoadFrom() already but when I checked the args.Name, I saw it was trying to load same assembly and after that it worked without any problem. So basically a type in the loaded assembly cannot be found before the event adding change.

My old code was using AppDomain.CurrentDomain.Load() and Assembly.Load() methods and they were working fine without the AssemblyResolve event. I was able to reach types in dynamically loaded Assembly from every where within the same AppDomain.

LoadFrom() can find dependencies automatically within the same requested assembly path and that couldn't be problem as everything this dll needs was there. So at first it looked like a AppDomain problem to me as it looks like it seems it can reach assemblies from Load context instead of LoadFrom context and I am now using LoadFrom context.But now it seems I should pass oAssembly instance evertwhere to use any type from the loaded assembly?Doesn't it load the assembly where I can reach it everywhere (same AppDomain) using simple Type.GetType(...) method?

Designing A Permissions Based Security Model?

Jul 11, 2011

I work on a vb.net winforms app where we currently are using simple roles for security. We enable/disable specific controls based on if the current user has the required role. We are to the point where this is no longer granular enough.Our application is based on different physical locations we call sites. A user might have permission to do something (for example, edit a site's configuration) at one site but not another. Therefore, we now need to lookup permissions based on current user AND current site. Also, a certain user's permissions may be very specific to themselves ie. no other user's permissions are exactly the same as another user's. Therefore we need a security model that's more permissions based rather than role based.

What's the best way to design a new permissions model that can meet these requirements? I want to make sure that it's easy to implement the checking in the code (I don't want a million if statements sprinkled in our SetUIPermissions methods) and we don't want to have to update every user (400+ and counting) each time we add a new permission. Because of this last requirement I think we need to keep the idea of roles but possibly add/remove exceptions for particular permissions for specific users

VS Was Unable To Determine Code Access Security (CAS) Permissions

May 2, 2009

This program is a small ADOX database with a single data entry Form. Originally written in VB 2005, it was copied into the VB 2008 Project folder. Opening the file in the IDE, it went through the Conversion process, nevertheless, because of the following error detailed below, the program will not accept any changes.

Error List: Warning 1 Unable to find manifest signing certificate in the certificate store. AppointmentsMissed (<the project's name) Under Security in the project's Properties Window these suggestions are made: Visual Studio was unable to determine the Code Access Security (CAS) permissions that are applicable to your project. The most likely cause is that your project references a strongly-named assembly that defines custom permissions, but that is not properly installed in the global assembly cache (GAC).

To correct this, try the following: 1. Ensure that any custom permissions defining assemblies referenced by your project have been properly installed to the GAC. If any of these assemblies have been rebuilt or have had their version numbers modified, you must install the new assemblies in the GAC. 2. Restart Visual Studio.

Security - Getting Message When Run The Application - Assembly Does Not Allow Partially Trusted Callers

Apr 28, 2009

Out of 70 users of my application 2 are getting the following message when they to run the application... That assembly does not allow partially trusted callers. The reason for the error is that by default .net applications run from a network location have limited permissions. You need to use caspol.exe to add the network folder where your application is being run from to the Trusted Zone. If you do a search on these forums you will find plenty examples of how to do this. It is fairly simple. It will have to be done on every machine that will be running the application and a simple cmd file can be made to do this. The only difference is that I've asked our service desk to install the application to the local C drive which I believe they did.

Method Not Found When Loading Assembly

Aug 3, 2009

I am getting a
"Method not found: 'Boolean MyCompany.LibraryAssembly.SomeFunction (System.String)'"
Exception/error when running a VB.NET console application. The method is part of an external assembly and it is definitely in the assembly. The error only occurs at runtime when I go to enter the function that calls the method. I have the assembly referenced by my project and I am not copying it locally. Intellisense shows no errors, and neither does the compiler. I am loading the assembly statically not dynamically. I reference the from a local folder (not the GAC) although the same version is also available from the GAC.

Dynamic Assembly Loading And Using 'Shared' Methods?

Dec 20, 2011

I now have a need to dynamically load a dll into my application and I've found the reflection/assembly information and it's fairly easy to implement so I thought I was on my way. However, I quickly found out that I'm only able to use 'shared' methods. What I was originally thinking was I could have one shared method 'library.beginprocess' and then that would make all the necessary calls to the other methods, but this doesn't work unless all the other methods and class level objects are also shared.

I feel like I'm missing something or somethings just going right over my head. I've looked at many, many sites and examples, but I've only run across examples that expose 1 method,[URL]..which explain how to implement a plugin architechture, which I have not tried yet, but maybe would allow me to keep my class structure the same without having to make everything shared?

Launching Web App - How To Prevent Pages From Loading Without Prompt

Sep 7, 2011

I am using VB.Net and VS 2008 to develop my web app. When I launch the app, pretty much all the pages get loaded (by that I mean the page_load event is triggered). This happens even for pages that I created. When this happens, the app throws some errors (if a particular value has not been loaded from the database) and thus results in javascript errors (yellow icon at the bottom of IE). How can I figure out "what" is causing the pages to load, and how can I prevent the pages from being loaded without code-prompting.

C# - Why Do We So Many Kinds Of Assembly Loading Methods - Only LoadFrom() Is Applicable?

Sep 25, 2010

AFAIK, there're 3 methods to load an assembly into a AppDomain:

Assembly.Load()
Assembly.LoadFrom()
Assembly.LoadFile()

The LoadFrom() method takes the assembly filepath as its argument, but the filepath is merely providing the assembly identity information as a clue to the CLR. The LoadFrom() method still internally calls Load() with that identity information. So it is quite possible that LoadFrom(filepath) will load a totally different assembly from the one specified by the filepath. But the tame LoadFile() method will just load the assembly we specified.

I am wondering why do we need the LoadFrom() method? It adds nothing but confusion and pitfall. Is there any scenario that only LoadFrom() is applicable?

SqlClientPermission Failed When Accessing Database By Loading Assembly From Web?

Apr 25, 2012

I have 1 exe and 1 dll. The dll (ClassLibrary1) file is located in the root of a website. In the dll I have a UserControl that populates with data its controls, from a database that is on a website too. The end user gets the exe file. This exe loads the dll and displays the UserControl1 on the form. This is how i load the control from inside the dll (located on the web site), on my form (exe file).

Private _dll As String = "http://www.site.com/ClassLibrary1.dll"
Private _class As String = "ClassLibrary1.UserControl1"
Private WithEvents cont As UserControl

[code]....

The error is "Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed."Note that if i dont load the usercontrol from the web and instead have it locally, there is no problem. The data are fetched from the database (db is on the web) with no problem.The problem seems to be that the loaded assembly from the web (the usercontrol1 inside the dll) has no permission to access anything. I am not trying to access stuff from the user's pc (like file IO), but access a database located on a web server.

Sql Server - Roles And Permissions In Windows Forms

Dec 7, 2011

I am wanting to update our current windows forms security to something a lot more flexible. At the moment we have a single column in thew users table which is named 'Access_Level', this field holds an int value (1 to 4) which is then use to determine users access to certain areas of the application. This worked fine when the system was small, but the system is growing rapidly now so I think it is a good time to update the user access and possibly introduce roles.
