CIM_AuthorizedPrivilege
class CIM_AuthorizedPrivilege
- extends CIM_Privilege
General Information:
Privilege is the base class for all types of
activities which are granted or denied to a Role or an Identity.
AuthorizedPrivilege is a subclass defining static renderings of authorization
policy rules. The association of Roles and Identities to AuthorizedPrivilege is
accomplished using the AuthorizedSubject relationship. The entities that are
protected are defined using the AuthorizedTarget relationship.
Note that
this class and its AuthorizedSubject/Target associations provide a short-hand,
static mechanism to represent authorization
policies.

RepresentsAuthorizationRights
public boolean RepresentsAuthorizationRights
- General Information:
The RepresentsAuthorizationRights flag
indicates whether the rights defined by this instance should be interpreted as
rights of Subjects to access Targets or as rights of Subjects to change those
rights on/for Targets.
QualifierFormats
public uint16[] QualifierFormats
- General Information:
Defines the semantics of corresponding
entries in the ActivityQualifiers array. An example of each of these 'formats'
and their use follows:
- 2=Class Name. Example: If the authorization
target is a CIM Service or a Namespace, then the ActivityQualifiers entries
can define a list of classes that the authorized subject is able to create or
delete.
- 3=<Class.>Property. Example: If the authorization target
is a CIM Service, Namespace or Collection of instances, then the
ActivityQualifiers entries can define the class properties that may or may not
be accessed. In this case, the class names are specified with the property
names to avoid ambiguity - since a CIM Service, Namespace or Collection could
manage multiple classes. On the other hand, if the authorization target is an
individual instance, then there is no possible ambiguity and the class name
may be omitted. To specify ALL properties, the wildcard string "*" should be
used.
- 4=<Class.>Method. This example is very similar to the
Property one, above. And, as above, the string "*" may be specified to select
ALL methods.
- 5=Object Reference. Example: If the authorization target is
a CIM Service or Namespace, then the ActivityQualifiers entries can define a
list of object references (as strings) that the authorized subject can access.
- 6=Namespace. Example: If the authorization target is a CIM Service, then
the ActivityQualifiers entries can define a list of Namespaces that the
authorized subject is able to access.
- 7=URL. Example: An authorization
target may not be defined, but a Privilege could be used to deny access to
specific URLs by individual Identities or for specific Roles, such as the
'under 17' Role.
- 8=Directory/File Name. Example: If the authorization
target is a FileSystem, then the ActivityQualifiers entries can define a list
of directories and files whose access is protected.
- 9=Command Line
Instruction. Example: If the authorization target is a ComputerSystem or
Service, then the ActivityQualifiers entries can define a list of command line
instructions that may or may not be 'Executed' by the authorized subjects.
- 10=SCSI Command, using a format of 'CDB=xx[,Page=pp]'. For example, the
ability to select the VPD page of the Inquiry command is encoded as
'CDB=12,Page=83' in the corresponding ActivityQualifiers entry. A '*' may be
used to indicate all CDBs or Page numbers.
- 11=Packets. Example: The
transmission of packets is permitted or denied by the Privilege for the target
(a ComputerSystem, ProtocolEndpoint, Pipe, or other
ManagedSystemElement).

ActivityQualifiers
public string[] ActivityQualifiers
- General Information:
The ActivityQualifiers property is an array
of string values used to further qualify and specify the privileges granted or
denied. For example, it is used to specify a set of files for which
'Read'/'Write' access is permitted or denied. Or, it defines a class' methods
that may be 'Executed'. Details on the semantics of the individual entries in
ActivityQualifiers are provided by corresponding entries in the
QualifierFormats
array.

Activities
public uint16[] Activities
- General Information:
An enumeration indicating the activities
that are granted or denied. These activities apply to all entities specified
in the ActivityQualifiers array. The values in the enumeration are
straightforward except for one, 4="Detect". This value indicates that the
existence or presence of an entity may be determined, but not necessarily
specific data (which requires the Read privilege to be true). This activity is
exemplified by 'hidden files'- if you list the contents of a directory, you
will not see hidden files. However, if you know a specific file name, or know
how to expose hidden files, then they can be 'detected'. Another example is
the ability to define search privileges in directory
implementations.

PrivilegeGranted
public boolean PrivilegeGranted
- General Information:
Boolean indicating whether the Privilege is
granted (TRUE) or denied (FALSE). The default is to grant permission.
InstanceID
public string InstanceID
- General Information:
Within the scope of the instantiating
Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this
class. In order to ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of
InstanceID SHOULD be constructed using the following 'preferred' algorithm:
<OrgID>:<LocalID>
Where <OrgID> and <LocalID>
are separated by a colon ':', and where <OrgID> MUST include a
copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the
business entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that
is assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This is
similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of Schema
class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness <OrgID> MUST NOT contain
a colon (':'). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in
InstanceID MUST appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>.
<LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and SHOULD not be re-used
to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above
'preferred' algorithm is not used, the defining entity MUST assure that the
resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or
other providers for this instance's NameSpace. For DMTF defined instances, the
'preferred' algorithm MUST be used with the <OrgID> set to
'CIM'.

ElementName
public string ElementName
- General Information:
A user-friendly name for the object. This
property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to
its key properties, identity data, and description information.
Note that
the Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly
name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the
same property can convey both identity and a user-friendly name, without
inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of
LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and
ElementName properties. Note that if there is an associated instance of
CIM_EnabledLogicalElementCapabilities, restrictions on this properties may
exist as defined in ElementNameMask and MaxElementNameLen properties defined
in that
class.
