lostnet commented on issue #959: correct initial fetch() of _security to use credentials (#929) URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton/pull/959#issuecomment-324001048 @Antonio-Maranhao how about if I assume the db is [secure by default](https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=couchdb-couch.git;a=blob;f=src/couch_db_updater.erl;h=78726358e2a2edfe7edafc9f60cf218252e54d55;hb=78726358e2a2edfe7edafc9f60cf218252e54d55#l1444), which I think in JS is: ``` if (json.error && json.reason) { dispatch(receivedPermissions({admins:{roles:["_admin"]}, users:{ roles:["_admin"]} })); throw new Error(json.reason); } ``` The user can always try to maintain whatever access they need to keep in their first POST to _security, but should be less likely to open up a window of attack. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
