I added an 'admin' user in the admin db, with roles on admin db and another db :
[admin] user: yves>db.auth("isabelle", "abc123")
1
[admin] user: isabelle>db.getUser("isabelle")
{
"_id" : "admin.isabelle",
"user" : "isabelle",
"db" : "admin",
"roles" : [
{
"role" : "userAdmin",
"db" : "admin"
},
{
"role" : "dbOwner",
"db" : "cockpit"
}
]
}
I am testing that this user cannot admin the 'test' database ( updating a tester user email )
[admin] user: isabelle>use test
switched to db test
[test] user: isabelle>db.updateUser(
... "myTester",
... {
... customData: {email: "[email protected]"}
... }
... )
As 'isabelle' has no roles on 'test' db , she should not be allowed to update any user on this db ... (?) but it is ...
[test] user: isabelle>db.getUser("myTester")
{
"_id" : "test.myTester",
"user" : "myTester",
"db" : "test",
"roles" : [
{
"role" : "readWrite",
"db" : "test"
},
{
"role" : "read",
"db" : "reporting"
}
],
"customData" : {
"email" : "[email protected]"
}
}
what am I missing ? do the isabelle' role 'userAdmin' on 'admin' db allow it ? I tried to remove it, but it deosn(t change anything ...
I also tried to move isabelle in the cockpit database, with dbOwner role, it doesn't change anything... isabelle is still able to update myTester user in the test database...
how can I restrict isabelle to admin only the 'cockpit' db ( managing users and roles for this db ..?
thanks for enlightment ...
