Subject: [pdm-devel] [PATCH proxmox v4 5/5] access-control: allow reading all acls of the current authid
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 15:43:13 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114144318.317322-6-s.sterz@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251114144318.317322-1-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 expose any
additional confidential information. however, being able to query this
information allows us, for example, to adapt ui components to a users
capabilities.

this uses `AclTreeNode::extract_roles` for the extraction.
`extract_roles` already respects the so far incomplete groups feature.
the part that is still missing here, is looking up what groups a user
belongs to. by using `extract_roles` so we should avoid accidentally
breaking the ui once groups are added.
