Applet v3 vs v7 limitations

[psvz]

Hi

I got some fabricated sample from production based in SE050C2 and before I was working with SE051H2, expectedly the applet version is older, and I had to re-compile the middleware:

sss   :ERROR:Compiled for 0x70200. Got older 0x30101

Is that correct understanding I wouldn't be able to freeze object change/creation with the old applet--

undefined symbol: Se05x_API_DisableObjCreation

More important - I have something not expected, the policies working with later version are not respected, e.g.

sss   :WARN :can_Read is not applied
sss   :WARN :can_Write is not applied

In my C code (and it works with applet v7) I have for example:

  const
  sss_policy_u      pcommon     =
  {
    .type         = KPolicy_Common,
    .auth_obj_id  = 0,
    .policy       =
    {
      .common     = { .can_Read = 1 }
    }
  };

What could be the problem?

Hi @psvz ,

Yes, your understanding is correct, DisableObjCreation is not supported on applet version 3.x, but you still can create a bin file to consume the rest of memory size. Please remember to set a proper policy for this bin file to avoid deletion from unauthenticated users.

The policy settings in your application have also to be updated as mentioned in SE-PLUG-TRUST-MW_04.07.00/simw-top/doc/changes/v04_00_00.html. They are because of the changes in applet behavior. 

Hope that helps,

Have a great day,
Kan

Hi @Kan_Li - thank you!

I can see in the documentation you cite:

can_Read and can_Write polices are moved from symmetric and asymmetric object policy to common policy in applet 7.x. PLEASE UPDATE THE APPLICATIONS ACCORDINGLY.

However, binary file (object) is neither symmetric nor asymmetric object, it has policy KPolicy_File.

Should I move .can_Write = 1 for authenticated session from common policy to KPolicy_File?

Hi @psvz ,

Yes, it is possible to set a custom policy for a bin file without can_Write, but better leave can_Delete in the common policy for the authenticated session so you are still able to delete it in some cases.

Have a great day,
Kan
