Description
With foreman 1.4 if a user had edit rights to a host due to a filter applied to a subset of hostgroups
they could
- Move a host to any hostgroup via API
- however when editing via web interface they were at least only
presented with hosgroups to which they were enabled in filter.
With foreman 1.5 the first point is still true that via API a host can be put in any hostgroup
but also the drop down box contains all hostgroups so it's a bit more obvious.
Having set up a role like the following with 1.5.
Resource | Permissions | Search |
hostgroup | view_hostgroups, create_hostgroups, edit_hostgroups, destroy_hostgroups | title = cvmfs or title ~ cvmfs/% |
Host/managed | view_hosts, create_hosts, destroy_hosts, console_hosts, build_hosts, edit_hosts, ipmi_boot, power_hosts, puppetrun_hosts | hostgroup_title = cvmfs or hostgroup_title ~ cvmfs/% |
You also get the slightly bizare consequence that a user can edit a host in such a way that they then no longer
have access to it.
The RFE is to request to somehow control which hostgroups a user is permitted to put hosts in. Returning to old
1.4 behaviour where the drop down box was limited to hostgroups that can be viewed would also be good.
