<section3 topic='Updating an Existing Node Configuration'
|
||||||
|
anchor='ownerusercases-configuration-updating'>
|
||||||
|
<p>Changing the Security Label or Clearance of an existing node is problematic for a number of
|
||||||
|
reasons:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Subscribers may no longer be Cleared to view a node to which they are already subscribed
|
||||||
|
</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Existing items persisted within a node may be of a higher Security Label than the new
|
||||||
|
node clearance allows</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p>For these reasons an implementation MAY wish to disallow changes to the Security Label of
|
||||||
|
an existing node with subscribers, disallow changes to the Clearance of a node with items,
|
||||||
|
or limit the options within the node configuration to those which do not cause a conflict.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>If an implementation chooses to allow a change to the clearance of a node that conflicts
|
||||||
|
with the Security Label of existing items within the node then the server MUST purge the
|
||||||
|
node of all items which are no longer within the updated clearance of the node, with or
|
||||||
|
without notifying subscribers.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>If an implementation chooses to allow a change to the Security Label of the node that
|
||||||
|
causes conflicts with existing subscribers to the node then the server MUST remove all
|
||||||
|
subscriptions from subscribers that are no longer Cleared to view the node. The server MUST
|
||||||
|
notify these subscribers. The server SHOULD send a Node Deletion notification, but might
|
||||||
|
instead send a Subscription Cancellation notification if entities are to be aware of the
|
||||||
|
existence of nodes they do not have Clearance to view.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The server MUST prevent a change to the Security Label of the node which would prevent a
|
||||||
|
node owner from accessing the node.</p>

|

|
<p>The protocol defined has the intention that, as far as possible, an entity should be unaware of
|
||||||
|
the existence of any nodes or items which they are not Cleared to view. Therefore server
|
||||||
|
responses to a request for a node which the entity is not Cleared to view SHOULD be identical to
|
||||||
|
a response as if that node did not exist (See <link url="#rules-1">BR1</link>), i.e. an
|
||||||
|
&ITEMNOTFOUND; error is returned</p>

|
<p>It is worth noting that there are certain situations where this is impossible, for example if
|

</ol>
|
an entity wishes to create a node with the same NodeID as an existing node that they are not
|
||||||
</section1>
|
Cleared to view.</p>
|
||||||
<section1 topic='Implementation Notes' anchor='impl'>
|
<p>Alternatively, an implementation might wish to relax this rule and allow entities to become
|
||||||
<p>OPTIONAL.</p>
|
aware of nodes they do not have Clearance to view. In this case an &INSUFFICIENTCLEARANCE;
|
||||||
</section1>
|
error MAY be returned instead.</p>

<section2 topic='Collection Nodes' anchor='impl-collections'>
|

</section1>
|
<p>If a service implements &xep0248; then there will need to be some consideration of node
|
||||||
<section1 topic='Internationalization Considerations' anchor='i18n'>
|
and item visibility within the node hierarchy.</p>
|
||||||
<p>OPTIONAL.</p>
|
<p>Due to the complexity of the access control policies involved, an implementation MAY choose
|
||||||
|
to do one or more of the following to simplify the implementation:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Prevent the use of Security Labels and/or Clearances on collection nodes.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Prevent publishing items with Security Labels to non-orphan leaf nodes (i.e. leaf nodes
|
||||||
|
with an association to a collection node).</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Prevent the association of leaf nodes containing Security Labelled items with collection
|
||||||
|
nodes.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Prevent the association of Security Labelled nodes with collection nodes.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p>The rules and protocols defined elsewhere in this document are generally applicable to
|
||||||
|
collection nodes with the following additions:</p>
|
||||||
|
<section3 topic='Notifications' anchor='impl-collections-notifications'>
|
||||||
|
<p>A collection node MUST NOT forward a publish notification with a Security Label that is
|
||||||
|
incompatible with the Clearance of the collection node.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>A collection node SHOULD NOT forward a node change notification
|
||||||
|
(create/update/delete/associate) where the Security Label of the affected node is
|
||||||
|
incompatible with the Clearance of the collection node.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The server SHOULD NOT send node change notifications to any entity where the Security Label
|
||||||
|
of the affected node is incompatible with the Clearance of the entity.</p>
|
||||||
|
</section3>
|
||||||
|
<section3 topic='Retrieving Items on Collection Nodes' anchor='impl-collections-retrieveitems'>
|
||||||
|
<p>The server MUST NOT return any items from leaf nodes where the individual Security Label of
|
||||||
|
the item is incompatible with the Clearance of the requesting entity.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The server SHOULD NOT return any items from any associated nodes where the Security Label
|
||||||
|
of the leaf node, or any intermediate collection node on the node graph, is incompatible
|
||||||
|
with the Clearance of the requesting entity.</p>
|
||||||
|
</section3>
|
||||||
|
<section3 topic='Associating a Node to a Collection' anchor='impl-collections-associating'>
|
||||||
|
<p>A server SHOULD NOT allow an entity to associate, either through configuration or through
|
||||||
|
an &ASSOCIATE; statement, a child node to a collection node if the Security Label of the
|
||||||
|
child node is incompatible with the Clearance of the collection node.</p>
|
||||||
|
</section3>
|
||||||
|
</section2>
|
||||||
|
<section2 topic='Implementation Specific Structuring within Items' anchor='impl-itemstructure'>
|
||||||
|
<p>An implementation might choose to impose some kind of structure on items within a node. For
|
||||||
|
example: items may include a list of blog posts, but may also include comments relating to
|
||||||
|
specific blog posts from other users.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>An implementation MAY apply different logic to the visibility of items in this case,
|
||||||
|
perhaps by disallowing access to comment items if the requester is not Cleared to view the
|
||||||
|
associated blog post item, even if the individual Security Label on the comment item would not
|
||||||
|
normally prevent access.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>However, the server MUST NOT allow access to an item if the requester is not Cleared to view
|
||||||
|
the Security Label for the item (i.e. this mechanism must only be used to further restrict
|
||||||
|
access to items and must not be used to widen access).</p>
|
||||||
|
</section2>
|
||||||
|
<section2 topic='Limiting Notifications to a Certain Clearance' anchor='impl-limitclearance'>
|
||||||
|
<p>An implementation may wish to allow a subscriber to limit the sensitivity of items which are
|
||||||
|
delivered for a certain subscription. For example: a subscriber may wish to only receive
|
||||||
|
notifications of items which are unclassified, even if the node has a higher clearance.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>One way this could be implemented is by expanding the Data Form for the subscription options.

||||||
