Re: Weird ACL / Auth problem: action denied, action/5 allowed - why?

I suppose you want the http://www.myapp.com/controller/action/5 to be accessed only with the owner of this.If this is what you might want to this particular url will help you http://aranworld.com/article/189/cakephp-acl-and-auth-record-level-protection-and-crud

Hope it helps,

Hey,

In my app I have the following ACL issue:

All actions/controllers are secured by ACL and a user should only see
pages when he is logged in. This works fine in general, but I
discovered a weird error today which is given me a headache:

When you enter the url

http://www.myapp.com/controller/action

the user is redirected to the login, which is exactly what I want.

But if the user types in this, e.g. to edit an article or sth like
that:

http://www.myapp.com/controller/action/5

the ACL does NOT deny the access to the page and everyone can view the
contents of the page!

This is a horrible security issue and I gotta fix it ASAP, so I'd be
very happy if someone could point me to the right direction so I can
solve this big problem!

Thx in advance,

DD
