  AspNetHostingPermission and HttpModule

  Dec 29, 2011 10:00 PM|joxa83|LINK

  Hi guys,

  I can not understand why HttpModules usually have

  AspNetHostingPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Level=AspNetHostingPermissionLevel.Minimal) 

  applied. As I understand, methods of the HttpModule will always be called by ASP.NET code(System.Web.HttpApplication) which is located in GAC, hance having FullTrust permission set.

  Hey there

  Ask your hosting providers for the permission, Yes there are some hosting providers who do not support http handlers on their servers. 

  and check for details about httpmodules

  Hi mayankpathaky,

  are you trying to say that ony reason for 

  [AspNetHostingPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Level=AspNetHostingPermissionLevel.Minimal)] on HttpModule is that some providers may not allowe FullTrust for Microsoft's assemblies?

  I'm sorry i didn't read your question carefully first time....

  But yes some hosting companies don't trust httphandlers on their servers i'm sure about it.

  and for your question read this for details...Its interesting and useful for you and me also.
