1
Authorization to a command is not verified because there are means other than using a command interface by which iSeries users can open and close files.
2
Command authorization is not verified because there is not a direct, one-to-one mapping between a CL command and the DDM LODRECF/ULDRECF command.
3
Authorization to the DSPFD and DSPFFD commands is not verified because it cannot be determined which command should be verified. In addition, the conditions under which the DDM command was issued by the source server are not known.
4
The space available to a user can be obtained by issuing the DSPUSRPRF command, but this is only a small piece of the data available through the use of this command.
5
Authorization to the CL DLCOBJ command is not checked because if the remote user was able to allocate files, DDM must be able to deallocate them.
