>    Affects Versions: 4.5.2
>            Reporter: Karsten Spang

> In {{GGSSchemeBase.generateGSSToken}}, line 133 in version 4.5.2:
> {code:java}
>         gssContext.requestCredDeleg(true);
> {code}
> For Kerberos, this means that the client will forward the to TGT to the server. First, I don't see why you would want that, as that is an unnecessary security risk. Second, I have a problem with my {{SecurityManager}} (Oracle's in-database Aurora security manager), so I am unable to create a permission for this that works.
> I suggest to change this to
> {code:java}
>         gssContext.requestCredDeleg(false);
> {code}
> There might be situations where a client application would actually want to pass the TGT, but it should be possible to control this.
