------------------------------------

             Summary: Proper use of if-has-permission
                 Key: OFBIZ-9740
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-9740
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ALL COMPONENTS
            Reporter: Suraj Khurana


As per discussion in dev mailing list:
We use <if-has-permission element for checking the specified permission of logged in party.
There are two supported attributes as well in which permission is mandatory and action is optional.
If action is not passed then it looks for specific permission.

For Example:
<if-has-permission permission="LABEL_MANAGER_VIEW"/>
It should be like <if-has-permission permission="LABEL_MANAGER" action="_VIEW"/>
Now if someone has LABEL_MANAGER_ADMIN permission, then that user won't be granted permission. It should check for _ADMIN permission as well.

This is properly handled when you pass action attribute, it checks for specific permission passed and _ADMIN permission as well.

Proposed solution:

We must use permission and action attributes at every such code occurrences to avoid this situation.
