Subject: [pdm-devel] [PATCH proxmox v2 4/4] access-control: allow reading all acls of the current authid
Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2025 15:11:20 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251022131126.358790-5-s.sterz@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251022131126.358790-1-s.sterz@proxmox.com>
adds a parameter to the `API_METHOD_READ_ACL` endpoint to allow
listing all ACL entries of the currently authenticated Authid.
allowing a user to see their own ACLs does not really exposes any
additional confidential information. however, being able to query this
information allows us, for example, to adapt ui components to a users
capabilities.
