Subject: Do not be over-restrictive in the presence of UAC
X-Git-Tag: kfw-4.0-final~106
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4e52b28c39bc48c3cad60ae833156061a0ae9b02;p=thirdparty%2Fkrb5.git

Do not be over-restrictive in the presence of UAC

We used to explicitly check if a process was UAC-limited and deny all
access to the TGT in that case; however, this makes the MSLSA cache
effectively useless.
Do not try to outsmart UAC, and let it do its own checking -- this allows
UAC-limited access to the MSLSA ccache, which should mean read-write
access to service tickets, and write-only access to the TGT.
