Description
These lines are currently ignored. They are intended to specify the site
policies used by the XC-QUERY-SECURITY-1 authorization method.
These lines specify how the server should react to untrusted client requests
that affect the X Window property named <property/ar>. The rest of this
section describes the interpretation of an <access rule>.
For an <access rule> to apply to a given instance of <property/ar>,
<property/ar> must be on a window that is in the set of windows specified
by <window>. If <window> is any, the rule applies to <property/ar> on
any window. If <window> is root, the rule applies to <property/ar> only
on root windows.
If <window
is <required property>, the following apply. If <required
>
property> is a <property/rp>, the rule applies when the window also has
that <property/rp>, regardless of its value. If <required property> is a
<property with value>, <property/rpv> must also have the value specified
by <string/rv>. In this case, the property must have type STRING and
format 8, and should contain one or more null terminated strings. If any of
the strings match <string/rv>, the rule applies.
The definition of string matching is simple case-sensitive string comparison
with one elaboration: the occurrence of the character '*' in <string/rv> is a
wildcard meaning "any string." A <string/rv> can contain multiple
wildcards anywhere in the string. For example, "x*" matches strings that
begin with x, "*x" matches strings that end with x, "*x*" matches strings
containing x, and "x*y*" matches strings that start with x and subsequently
contain y.
There may be multiple <access rule> lines for a given <property/ar>. The
rules are tested in the order that they appear in the file. The first rule that
applies is used.
Specify operations that untrusted clients may attempt, and the actions that
the server should take in response to those operations.
