Is a JAAS application on z/OS required to run as an authorized program?
Nothing implemented in z/OS JAAS requires running the calling applications as authorized programs. However, because JAAS uses controlled services to perform authentication and authorization, all program modules which are part of an application using JAAS on z/OS must be marked as program-controlled. To learn more about protecting programs on z/OS, refer to “Protecting Programs” in z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator’s Guide, SA22-7683. To learn more about the effects of uncontrolled programs and how to define modules to program control, refer to “Handling dirty address spaces” in z/OS Unix System Services Planning, GA22-7800. For information on defining programs as program controlled, refer to “Defining programs in UNIX files to program control” and “Steps for defining programs from load libraries to program control” in z/OS Unix System Services Planning, GA22-7800.
