In 3.1 the accesscontrollist tag began performing an and on the
permissions. This may have been accidental, but I think that it is more
intuitive & secure for it to behave this way. When compared to hasAnyRole
and hasRoles the hasPermission tag implies it is an and. If users end up
needing OR support, then the authorize tag can be used along with the
hasPermission expression. For example:
<sec:authorize access="hasPermission(#domain, 'read') or hasPermission(#domain, 'write') ">
In general, the authorize tag should be preferred as it is the more
powerful way of performing authorization checks.
A number of projects had duplicate dependencies on their classpaths
as a result of the same classes being available in more than one
artifact, each with different Maven coordinates. Typically this only
affected the tests, but meant that the actual classes that were
loaded was somewhat unpredictable and had the potential to vary
between an IDE and the command line depending on the order in which
the aritfacts appeared on the classpath. This commit adds a number of
exclusions to remove such duplicates.
In addition to the new exclusions, notable other changes are:
- Spring Data JPA has been updated to 1.4.1. This brings its
transitive dependency upon spring-data-commons into line with
Spring LDAP's and prevents both spring-data-commons-core and
spring-data-commons from being on the classpath
- All Servlet API dependencies have been updated to use the official
artifact with all transitive dependencies on unofficial servlet API
artifacts being excluded.
- In places, groovy has been replaced with groovy-all. This removes
some duplicates caused by groovy's transitive dependencies.
- JUnit has been updated to 4.11 which brings its transitive Hamcrest
dependency into line with other components.
There appears to be a bug in Gradle which means that some exclusions
applied to an artifact do not work reliably. To work around this
problem it has been necessary to apply some exclusions at the
configuration level

- Rename csrfField to csrfInput
- Make AbstractCsrfTag package scope
- rename FormFieldTag to CsrfInputTag
- rename MetaTagsTag to CsrfMetaTagsTag
- removed whitespace from tag output so output is
minimized & improving browser performance

- changed test names to be more meaningful
Spring Security 3.1 has a regression i the AccessControlListTag
which should support using the bitmask in hasPermission.
Now hasPermission supports bit masks again.
Spring Security 3.0.x allowed developers to pass in a , separated list of permissions.
However, this functionality was accidentally removed in SEC-1560.
The AcessControlListTag now splits the permissions using , as a delimiter
which fixes this passivity issue.
