MSIR.0559 WEBLOGCOOKIE and WEBPUBLOG are mutually exclusive parameters

Both the WEBLOGCOOKIE and the WEBPUBLOG parameter were specified on a JANUS DEFINE command. WEBPUBLOG makes it possible for a public (non-password-protected) login to a userid that has system manager privileges by giving the WEBUSER userid system manager privileges either in CCASTAT or an external authorizer. While this might be intended and somewhat "safe" it is not recommended operating procedure. Specifying WEBLOGCOOKIE with WEBPUBLOG makes the situation considerably worse by making it possible for a user (or hacker) to set the login cookie to a userid of a system manager and then having WEBPUBLOG cause the user's request to run with system manager privileges. While it still might not be possible for a user (or hacker) to take advantage of this (depending on the web applications) it was deemed to dangerous to allow WEBLOGCOOKIE to be used in conjunction with WEBPUBLOG. If the ability to use both these facilities is essential, contact Sirius Software technical support to see what might be done.
